Thriller
David Spandau returns to protect a once A-list actress
from the clutches of a deranged stalker — and from her own
faltering will to live. Fifteen years ago, Anna Mayhew won an Oscar for Best
Actress. Rich, famous, and beautiful, she had the world at
her feet. Nearly forty years old, Anna is being offered
these days only bland supporting roles, the kind she got
her acting started with. So she spends much of her time
thinking up clever and dangerous methods of self-
destruction. But she may not have to kill herself after all. Anna
discovers she has a stalker—Vincent, a crazed fan whose
idea of love involves a straight razor and lots of blood.
What better way to propel the name Anna Mayhew into film
immortality? Enter David Spandau, ex-stuntman and private
investigator, who has been hired by Anna's sister Pam to
protect the star. But Anna doesn't want help—until she
meets Spandau and decides she needs his intimate
protection all the way to the Cannes Film Festival, where
she's slated to be a judge. Spandau finds himself falling for Anna, as well. But
there's the not so small problem of trying to keep a woman
alive who'd prefer to be dead. To complicate matters,
Vincent has followed Anna to Cannes intent on a bloody
consummation of their relationship and he is being tracked
by Special, an opera-loving L.A. pimp trying to recover
the mob-owned money Vincent stole from him. So a deadly cat-and-mouse game that begins in the meat
market of Hollywood culminates at the Roman orgy that is
Cannes. Author Depp proves again to have the deadliest and
most perceptive eye trained on the entertainment business
today. With an enthralling, hair-raising final act,
Babylon Nights is a twisted and sharply funny thrill ride
that will delight Spandau fans and newcomers alike.
