Acting Like Death — Susan Hart

EROTIC ROMANCE:  Mature Audience

When her lover Lothar von Rabenhorst died, FBI agent Lily Foxworthy found it difficult to even walk by the wonderfully-restored old theatre in Santa Barbara, California, where she now lives and where Lothar had performed many times.

A chance ticket given to her by a friend leads to a meeting with brilliant Shakespearean actor Peter Hawking, and when Lily makes love with Peter in her office the next day after the performance, she finds herself wrapped both in a ghostly mystery and at the beginning of another powerful love story which will test her abilities as both an FBI agent, and her emotional survival.

Lily's relationship with Peter is cemented with this satisfying, erotic, romantic and emotional love story and the climax provides closure to her relationship with Lothar. Or, does it?
