From Publishers Weekly
In this stylish, funny fifth caper (after 2005's
Over Her Dead Body) from
Cosmopolitan magazine editor-in-chief White,
Buzz gossip mag reporter Bailey Weggins takes a moment off from tracking celebrity crime to hunt down a missing actor. Her one-time hunky fling, Chris Wickersham, calls on her for help finding his friend Tom Fain, who appears with Chris on the TV show
Morgue, a
C.S.I.-type drama shooting in New York City. Bailey and Chris learn that Tom had been having an affair with the producer's girlfriend and that he withdrew $7,000 in cash before he disappeared. Bailey's dogged pursuit of Tom's trail leads to his family home in upstate New York, where she discovers his rotting remains. Even when another member of the
Morgue cast is murdered and Bailey also becomes a target of a very theatrical killer, her lively love life continues with a renewed flirtation with Chris and lingering attraction to another fling, documentary filmmaker Beau Regan. White's flair for pop culture and affection for single career women make this trendy romantic suspense cocktail an addictive read.

From AudioFile
Sassy, gutsy, and gorgeous Bailey Weggins, crime reporter for the New York gossip rag Buzz, agrees to help an actor friend investigate the disappearance of a fellow actor from the hot new TV show Morgue. Bailey finds life imitating art when bodies start piling up and the killer starts stalking her. When Baileys old love interest reappears, the result is fun and suspenseful. Rene Raudmans portrayal of Bailey is perfect. She has just the right amount of bounce and bravado. Raudmans portrayal of the other characters is not particularly distinctive, but she brings such energy to the story that listeners will hardly notice. A.C.P. © AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine--
