A gated dream town for the megarich becomes a murderous nightmare in a riveting Eve Ronin thriller by #1 New York Times bestselling author Lee Goldberg.
Synopsis:
Hidden Hills is a private celebrity enclave of white picket fences and horse trails that seems to exist in a dreamworld. But when reality superstar Kitty Winslow is killed within their gates and corpses are found in the vast state park outside them, LASD detective Eve Ronin realizes there is a deadly, razor-thin line between what’s real and what’s imagined.
Eve discovers that Kitty’s surreal on- and off-camera life, a blur of fact and fantasy, shockingly mirrors her own as she struggles to investigate the killings, wade into a music industry war, and battle a vicious Chilean gang—all while her life is being turned into a fictional cop show directed by her estranged father.
Eve’s grip on reality and the case is strained to the breaking point as the slayings continue, the media frenzy reaches a fever pitch, and the only inescapable truth she can see is death…and it’s coming for her.
Review:
Eve has more than a murder at hand- she has Hollywood elite, a gated community that it its own city, potential suspects deft at obstruction and her father's film about HER life interfering in the places she has to work in. It's enough to drive anyone batty, but Eve holds it together long enough to start stringing together the clues. But first she has to get past the 'helpful' locals and discover that there is more than one crime being hidden in these hills. A fast page turner, it's a welcome book 5 in the series! Make sure you check out this series, if you're looking for a tough female lead!
