Failed Hollywood actress. Keeper of Hollywood's secrets.

Edie's a Hollywood actress who is falling out of favour with major studios. When an explosive letter lands in her hands, it couldn't have come at a better time.

The letter, written by a young starlet, alleges an assault by an A-list actor. Edie wastes no time sending it to print, buying herself a new career as Tinseltown's reigning gossip columnist.

Edie has more power on the page than she ever commanded in front of the camera. But dealing in your former friends' secrets comes at a price - and when her scoop turns into the trial of the decade, Edie's decisions have the potential to ruin more than one life . . .

Do Tell is a glittering journey into golden age Hollywood, and a sharply relevant exploration of secrets, power, and who gets to tell your story.
