Act of Darkness by Simon Shaw

A crime novel from the author of THE COMPANY OF KNAVES, in which character-actor and occasional murderer, Philip Fletcher, takes a quiet job at a rural theatre, only to be disturbed when the object of his amorous intention becomes the victim of an obsessive stalker.

All of the books in the "Philip Fletcher" series are good. They're filled with lots of dark humor which I adore. I found Philip Fletcher intelligent, funny, likable, and very charming. You feel like you're a co-conspirator in all of Philip's bad deeds. Loads of fun though, depending on your point of view, nothing too sinister.
