In  his  early  twenties,  budding   scientist  Richard   Stevenson stumbles across a newspaper picture of a young actress taken at a Gala Dinner in Los Angeles in 2014. Intrigued by the haunted expression on her face, he  researches her career and  discovers  that  she  killed  herself  in  2017  aged just 26. This triggers an obsession  with  the  girl,   an  obsession  that  will  result  in  a  journey  never attempted before.

     Many   years   earlier,  Rachel   Starr  is  a  wannabe  actress. She  has  been  in  Hollywood  for  two  years  but  is  not alone. There are hundreds like her, many facing   dangers  from   those  who   would   entice   them   into   the  world   of   pornography, prostitution, or simply into bed. Then, one day, she finds herself in the clutches of a sexual predator.

      Paul   Lander   is    an   enigmatic   character    seemingly  possessing an intimate knowledge of what the future holds for Rachel - and, indeed, the rest of us.
