Her loyalties are divided--perhaps she loves them both. The detective helps her to release her inner beauty and become a star overnight. The rich man is the angel of a play she stars in. But something is very wrong. Money can be an evil guest, but there are other evils. As Lovecraft said, \"That is not dead which can eternal lie.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eGene Wolfe (1931-2019)\u003c\/b\u003e was the Nebula Award-winning author of The Book of the New Sun tetralogy in the Solar Cycle, as well as the World Fantasy Award winners \u003ci\u003eThe Shadow of the Torturer\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eSoldier of Sidon\u003c\/i\u003e.
