After a scandalous affair, an illegitimate child is placed with a powerful and eccentric Hollywood family. His adoptive mother, desperate to maintain appearances, enlists influential allies—including a television icon—to bury his true origins. The deeper she hides the past, the more the cracks begin to show.
As he grows older, an unshakable feeling of deception haunts him. What is being hidden? Why does his existence feel like a carefully constructed illusion? Set against the shimmering yet deceptive world of Hollywood, this evocative memoir explores childhood trauma, family secrets, and the universal search for belonging.
A mesmerizing and emotionally charged true story, praised by Publisher’s Weekly and Kirkus Reviews, this unforgettable memoir will linger with you long after the final page.
