A young beautiful actress, singer, and model was suddenly found dead after a supposed overdose of sleeping pills. Though the original suspects remain unnamed in the unsolved murder of Junie Caliber--authorities kept a close call and continuously investigated the premises of the crime scene.

Headlines broke, and fans grew distraught by the unbearable news. With the coroner marking her death as a potential suicide, nobody knew the truth behind her pretty face, money, and glamor. One day you could have it all--and have nothing wavering at your side.
