Both the skeleton and the corpse have died with suspicious convenience for Georgia Wells, a monstrous but charming actress with a raffish entourage. Georgia''s best friend just happens to be Valentine, a top couturière and Campion''s sister. In order to protect Valentine, Campion must unravel a story of blackmail and ruthless murder.
