This was a wild ride, with loads of twists and turns. Ten years ago, Scout Sage and her best friend Isabel attended a swanky Hollywood party with Scout’s little sister Georgia. Only Georgia never made it out, she ended up murdered (in a case that remains unsolved). Now, in modern day, Scout has finally succeeded as a mid-tier popstar, with a close network of equally successful (hot, too!) girlfriends. When a slew of targetted murders makes L.A. headlines, all signs point to Scout as the killer. Scout knows she is being framed. Overnight, she goes from pop star to the world’s most famous alleged murderer. Everything she’s worked so hard to build is on the verge of falling apart unless she can prove she’s not guilty (or hand the FBI another suspect). Meanwhile, the young, ambitious detective assigned to her case is dealing with her own sister’s unsolved murder. As she dives deeper into her investigation, it seems like maybe these cases are all connected. I couldn’t put this down. It goes a little bit off the rails but is highly enjoyable, the sort of book that’s meant to be devoured in a single afternoon.
