As she returns to her hotel after winning her first Academy Award, she is attacked by a man wielding what appears to be a syringe. Sheela's entourage manages to shield her from the attacker, but he gets away unharmed.
Daily headlines tell of attacks on celebrities and odd thefts - stolen bedsheets, a lock of hair. Sheela turns to her head of security, ex-Marine Lymon Bridges, for protection. Bridges vows that Sheela will never fall victim to these bizarre attacks. But everywhere the actress goes, strange encounters occur, and it is clear to Bridges that the attackers won't stop until they get what they're after...whatever it is.
Anxious to uncover the truth behind the string of A-list celebrity assaults, Bridges hires private investigator Christal Anaya. Anaya was a young FBI hotshot until a major slipup cost her one of the Bureau's most important cases and her job. Desperate for action, Anaya takes the job but soon finds that Hollywood is far stranger than anything she saw in her days with the Bureau.
Bridges turns Sheela Marks's home into a highly secure compound, and the star secludes herself in what she hopes is safety. Meanwhile, Anaya is hot on a trail of evidence that leads to Genesis Athena, a corporation shrouded in secrecy, and to a rich and powerful sheik who surrounds himself with the world's most beautiful people.
The deeper Anaya digs, the more questions she unearths, and Hollywood's biggest stars are in a lot more danger than they realize.
Bizarre celebrity thefts are occurring all over the world: A piece of hair from John Lennon, Julia Roberts' bed linens, and Sheela Marks, Hollywood's hottest actress, is constantly being approached in odd ways by obsessed fans literally out for a piece of her. Paranoid and desperate for her own safety, she turns to her security expert, ex-Marine Lymon Bridges, who must match wits with his most formidable opponent yet.
One of Bridges's new recruits, Christal Anaya, was a hot shot FBI agent who recently lost her job due to a major slip-up during one of the agencies most sought after cases. Now Bridges hopes to use her investigative expertise to unveil the perpetrator behind these "attacks." But what she finds is far stranger than anything coming out of Hollywood. A major genetics firm has been all over the world, kidnapping the best genetic scientists to use their expertise in a bizarre black market trade of celebrity DNA, and its megalomaniacal mastermind will stop at nothing until the world is as beautiful as Hollywood's A-list.
