Informazioni su questo ebook
A Glamorous Hollywood Murder Entangles a Sharp New P.I.
In this smart, fast-paced follow-up to Steph Cha's critically acclaimed debut Follow Her Home, unforgettable new crime heroine Juniper Song—an apprentice at a P.I. firm—finds herself nose deep in a Hollywood murder scandal. When wealthy painter Daphne Freamon calls looking for an eye on her screenwriter boyfriend Jamie Landon, Song's boss punts the client to her. Jamie is ghostwriting a vanity project for aging movie star Joe Tilley, who winds up dead in a hotel room.
As the police build their case against Jamie, Song agrees to help the charismatic couple discover the truth. Chasing leads and questioning grieving Hollywood insiders, she uncovers a sordid layer of blackmail and hidden identities, of a history of violence that leaves no one—not even Song—safe from judgment.
Beware Beware is an edgy, gorgeously written mystery perfect for fans of Megan Abbott and Tana French. This noir thriller twists around the lies we tell ourselves and others, examining the ugliness under the skin-deep glamor of L.A.
Praise for Follow Her Home:
"[Song] is a compelling and original protagonist... One only hopes that Cha and her driven, neo-noir detective have more opportunities to explore those troubling intersections over many books to come." –LA Times
