"[A] delicious tale." -- New York Post"Intriguing, well-developed characters and fast-paced action make this mystery an entertaining read." -- Romantic Times"After two stand-alones from White, it's good to have Bailey back in her sixth outing (after Lethally Blond, 2007). She's a smart, sexy sleuth with a growing fan base." -- Booklist"Entertaining. . . . A fast-paced insider look at the seedy underworld of fame. Fans of the series and readers who love tabloid drama will be enthralled." -- Publishers Weekly
Renee Raudman delivers a winning performance in this audio edition of White's sixth whodunit featuring New York City reporter Bailey Weggins. Whenever the investigator in a mystery (especially one set in the present day) isn't a professional, listeners have to suspend even more disbelief-and that's where the right narrator (like Raudman) can make all the difference. Crime-with a specialization in celebrity misdeeds-is Bailey's beat, but her work becomes hands-on when an invitation to a country house lands her in "a big fat mess that involved all sorts of nasty things," including murder and kinky sex, as well as a threat to her continued employment. While Raudman shines in her portrayal of Weggins, she is less convincing in her rendition of male voices. However, this is a minor fault as the bulk of the narrator's performance is devoted to Weggins. A Harper hardcover. (Mar.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
