The Glitterati: Escaping Fame

By Gretchen A. Klein

Phoebe Holt is a lucky young woman to have inherited a small fortune to open her own art gallery on Madison Avenue in New York City. Her fianc?, Hugh is supportive until Phoebe befriends a secretive entrepreneur who takes a serious interest in her artwork and those of her clients.

The wealthy aristocrat soon purchases most of Phoebe's artwork, leaving Phoebe optimistic and financially secure. When the young art dealer is then introduced to the strange man's associates, Phoebe begins to doubt the stranger and his intentions. Her fianc? warns her of the man's obscure financial businesses in and around New York; however, Phoebe's newfound success keeps her committed to this mystery man.

After engaging herself more socially to the dark senior, Phoebe becomes less of herself and more tense, argumentative, and reckless in her work ethic and drinking pastime. His pressures of displaying obscure, grotesque paintings in her gallery does offer Phoebe financial success, but it also draws Phoebe closer to the inner circle of insanity.

She ends her relationship with Hugh, begins seeing a drug crazed celebrity, and spirals into drunken gluttony daily. When Phoebe finally realizes who her enamored benefactor really is, she must decide what is most important in her life: her own sanity, or the luxurious lifestyle that this strange entrepreneur has awarded her?

Will Phoebe become one of the dark figures herself in this Satanic cult, or will she return to that of a modest art dealer who can reconcile with her fianc? and begin a family? As Phoebe races out of time with the demonic man pressuring her for marriage, she must decide before her fate is chosen for her.
