By: Ashley Albi

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Scarlett James, a successful literary agent, returns to the small town of Spirit Lake, Iowa, to care for her injured grandmother, only to have her world turned upside down. Scarlett's ex-boyfriend, acclaimed thriller author Jasper Hall, is found dead in his hotel room the same night Scarlett agreed to meet with him. All eyes are on her, including those of the new, good-looking police chief. She just gave the town the juiciest gossip they've seen in years.

Determined to clear her name, Scarlett turns to her closest friends—Zoey, Bree, and Della—to start their own investigation and uncover all the secrets a small town can hide. As they scour the town for clues, Scarlett must confront her own complicated past, including the revelation that Jasper used her own tragic family history as inspiration for his latest novel.

Join Scarlett as she journeys to uncover the truth, not knowing just how close to death it will take her.

The story was well written with several subplots and kept me interested.

I don’t care more the mechanical voice of the virtual voice, which interferes with listening enjoyment but the book was interesting enough to keep me listening
