Lila Jane is an exclusive call-girl based in a high-tech suburb of
Seattle. She receives an anonymous email from a blackmailer who
threatens to kill her if she doesn't do exactly what he says. She
hires private investigator Rudy Sherman - who's a sucker for a
damsel in distress - to identify the blackmailer. Lila suspects a
rival of sabotaging her business, but as Rudy's investigation
descends into the strange underworld of Internet prostitution, he
turns up a host of suspects. His task is complicated by escorts and
johns who are reluctant to talk. Even Lila is keeping secrets from
him, including her true identity. It will take all of Rudy's
cunning and persistence to find the culprit in a group that
includes an obsessive former client and his jealous wife, a creepy
neighbor with a history of sexual harassment, and a sleazy Mormon
bishop. With the blackmailer escalating into brutal violence, Rudy
must track down the sinister truth using a combination of
old-fashioned detective work and Internet sleuthing. Author's Note:

Contains mature themes, violence, profanity, drug use, and sexual
situations.
