In a world obsessed with watching itself, reality is the new rock 'n' roll, and Tobe Darling - showbusiness guru and reality alchemist - has the would-be stars of tomorrow beating a path to his door. But Tobe's life is falling apart. He is tired of his clients' desperate ambitions, and lonely after his break-up with Scarlet - the one person who understands his bizarre sexual and psychological needs. After a disastrous appearance on a television show, things come to a head: Tobe dissolves his business partnership and goes out on his own with just one client to his name. But this new client is different from the rest. He is the ultimate show business personality. Tobe's new client is a serial killer.
