Tell-All is a novel by Chuck Palahniuk,[1] released on May 4, 2010. It is his 11th novel. A preview video, with the tagline: "Boy Meets Girl. Boy Gets Girl. Boy Kills Girl?" was released to entice fans prior to the novel's release.

Plot summary

[edit]

The novel, an homage to the Golden Age of Hollywood, is narrated by Hazel "Hazie" Coogan, a lifelong employee and caretaker of aging actress Katherine "Miss Kathie" Kenton.

When a suitor named Webster Carlton Westward III manages to weasel his way into Miss Kathie's heart (and bed), Hazie appears suspicious. Upon apparently discovering that Westward has already written a celebrity tell-all memoir foretelling Miss Kathie's death in a forthcoming Lillian Hellman–penned musical extravaganza, Hazie warns Kathie that Westward's intentions may be less than honorable, and may even be deadly.
