...kill his wife. So an agent of the Orange County sheriffs department, posing as a killer for hire, arranged a meeting with the suspect. The upshot, say investigators: a $3,000 contract to kill Susan Penney, 35. Half was paid up front; the balance was due after the deed, which was supposed to look like an accidental fall in the bathtub...

Hollywood's self-referential myths, far more than baseball's, revolve around the seduction and betrayal of the innocent. But now that the deed is done, it is equally easy to see how this material can lead even the most conscientious and respectful writers and directors astray. The problem is that the true life of this novel, for all the bustling melodrama of its surface, is inward; its highest pleasures are to be found in the silence it maintains about its deepest...
