Madison Avenue shoot

by Donald Bain

When Jessica's favorite nephew, Grady, asks her to visit him in New York City, she's happy to reunite with him. But there's more to Grady's invitation than family ties. It turns out that Grady is working as an accountant for a big-time production company that is creating a series of commercials featuring famous faces. And Grady has proposed that Jessica star in one of the first ads. While she loves her nephew, Jessica doesn't really want her face on camera. But with Grady's assurances-and her agent's nudging-she finally agrees to do it. So it's lights, camera, action-but the action doesn't stop for Jessica when the camera cuts. One of the most creative, ambitious-and despised-bigwigs is found murdered on the set, and there's a long list of suspects with a motive. And Jessica soon finds herself not just a witness in a murder case-but the only one who can uncover the killer.
