Sue Halliday was two weeks old when she first appeared in Festival TV's "The House That Jack Built," and spent the next sixteen years as part of the cast of that long-running serial. Known and adored nationwide, she has everything going for her--until she becomes infatuated with a fellow actor. When someone steals the notebook in which she confesses her feelings, Sue finds herself living the kind of terror she'd though only happened on the screen.It's all too real, however, as frightening phone calls threatening blackmail order her to perform seemingly harmless tasks, the consequences of which parallel accidents written into the scripts. After the "voice" tells Sue to buy a jar of honey, she learns that the actor who plays her father has been injured falling down a staircase having slipped on honey someone had smeared there. Life imitating art? Or a sinister warning? Soon, another phone call, another command, another accident. And then, murder!Sue could trust no one--not Ralph Boyd, the leading man she was infatuated with; or Camilla Squires, who hated her both on and off the set; or Lloyd Crichton, the producer on whom she'd so often depended; and not even Sonia Halliday, her cold and domineering mother. Sue Halliday was trapped. Helpless, she could only listen to the strange voice and obey its ominous instructions.
