And Peter Roland, making his way through the levels of difficulty, toward a half-mill win and stardom, is the perfect contestant for audience appeal and high ratings: Young, clean-cut, photogenic, smart. Especially in the wake of all the attention the producers and their team pour into burnishing that on-camera image. But his real life is proving as challenging...because he has some dark secrets that he doesn't want revealed.
