New York Times bestselling author Denise Grover Swank gives a former
TV star one more shot at fame--and it proves to be a killer
comeback...
Ten years ago, Summer Butler was television's most popular teenage
sleuth. Since then, she's hit--what gossip sites just love to
call--the gutter. Nearly bankrupt, betrayed, estranged from her greedy
mother, and just about unemployable, she's coaxed into that desperate
haven for has-beens: reality TV.
Winging it as a faux PI, she'll solve off-the-cuff mysteries in her
hometown of Sweet Briar, Alabama. For added drama, there's police chief
Luke Montgomery, inconveniently Summer's first and only love.
It's when Summer stumbles upon a very real corpse that Darling
Investigations takes an unexpected twist. The growing list of suspects
is a big draw to viewers, but the reality is that Summer doesn't know
whom she can trust. Someone has written this killer new scene especially
for her, and unless Summer gives the role everything she's got, it could
be her last...
