From the bestselling author of the Lexi Graves Mysteries comes a witty, fast-paced Hollywood whodunit!
Shayne Winter thought she had everything lined up: her dream job at the LA Chronicle, a chic new apartment, and the perfect Los Angeles lifestyle. But her first day is a total train wreck—her apartment has been hijacked by a charming squatter, and her new role as chief reporter vanishes when her predecessor, Ben Kosina, strolls back in and bumps her to the obituary desk.
When she’s assigned to cover the supposed accidental death of washed-up child star Chucky Barnard, Shayne sees her chance to prove herself. But when Chucky’s sister swears it was murder, Shayne is pulled into a dangerous investigation. Between a relentless detective, a ruthless Ben, and a killer determined to silence her, Shayne may be in far deeper than she ever imagined.
To save her career—and her life—she’ll have to crack the case before her deadline becomes deadly.
