As a reporter for New York's last evening tabloid, Marie Brown
writes about the bizarre and the scandalous. But her life is
hardly either. She's too single, too tall, and too pragmatic for
anything other than her routine-which consists of going to work
and going to the library, where she indulges in her one passion,
physics, and in conversations with Marco Trentadue, the strange
"freelance intellectual" in blue pajamas. Then the trajectory of
her life takes an unexpected turn.
Nora Mars-glamour girl, star of stage and screen-is near
death. Marie has worshipped Nora since she was in high school.
Naturally she will write Nora's obit. When Marie meets Nora's
charismatic third ex-husband for an interview, she struggles
between a reporter's integrity and plain old lust. What Marie
uncovers is a story of a starlet who took the exigencies of fame
into her own hands-and the inspiration to do the same with her
own love life.
