Publisher's Synopsis
"A darkly comedic novel that rings true again and again with a pitch perfect commentary on the Hollywood fame game."
-Michael Cuomo, Star/Producer of the award-winning feature film, Happy New Year
In 1982 Max Hammond was thrust into the spotlight, a star of the teen movies written and directed by his mentor Robert Cowley.
Thirty years later and Max is a nobody, a has-been waiting tables in a West Village bistro. But when Cowley dies, and his funeral fast be-comes the A-list Hollywood event of the year, Max is given the option to stay in the shadows or to walk back into the limelight once more.
