I Went Down to the Valley — Tony Masero

It looked simple on the face of it â€" TV actor commits suicide, what more is there to say? You hear it every day.

Trouble is there's no good reason. He's the company's well-liked leading star, a nice fellow with a successful career, a sweet sponsorship profile and a whole shiny Hollywood future ahead of him.

That's when they call in troubleshooting PI Jack Stern to put a gloss on things but what Jack uncovers leads him down a complex avenue of sex and intrigue.

It seems there will be a long trail of death and deceit before Jack can leave this particular valley of shadows.
