Vivian Parry, 32, ist Theaterkritikerin in New York, single, versnobt und berüchtigt für ihre gnadenlosen Verrisse. Nach einem Interview mit dem Wissenschaftler David Adler verschwindet dieser spurlos. Vivians professionelle Neugier ist geweckt und sie beginnt, auf eigene Faust Nachforschungen anzustellen. Doch angetrieben durch zu wenig Schlaf und zu viel zweifelhafte Selbstmedikation, verstrickt sie sich immer tiefer in ihre Rolle als Amateurdetektivin und verliert zusehends den Halt.

New York, 1972. A cloistered college student slips out of the dorms to attend a performance by a legendary experimental performance troupe. Within months, she has left campus life behind and joined the company, infatuated by its charismatic leader and his promises of absolute freedom. California, 1997. A theater teacher at an exclusive private school receives an unsettling letter. With her job at risk and her past clawing at her carefully constructed present, what will she do to protect the life she has made?

Vivian Parry likes the dark. A former actress, she now works as the junior theater critic at a major Manhattan magazine. Her nights are spent beyond the lights, in a reserved seat, giving herself over to the shows she loves. By day, she savages them, with words sharper than a knife. Angling for a promotion, she reluctantly agrees to an interview, a conversation that reveals secrets she thought she had long since buried. Then her interviewer disappears and she learns―from his devastated fiancée―that she was the last person to have seen him alive.
