Playwright Alex Dennison is a man with a mission.

It’s been one year since the Broadway debut of his then fiancé, Monica Welles. A debut which ended in tragedy when her body was found in her apartment, an apparent suicide.

On the anniversary of her death, Alex has called together the cast and crew of that ill-fated Broadway production. He is eager to start rehearsing his new play, Killing Jessica, whose heroine bears an uncanny resemblance to Monica.

As they progress through Killing Jessica, Alex’s colleagues grow wary of his intentions. Did Monica take her own life or was she murdered? And which one of the assembled thespians, if any, committed that deed? Packed with red herrings, thrills and wit, is this a rehearsal for a new play? Or a rehearsal for murder?
