From the world of the bestselling Lexi Graves Mysteries… furnishing is a handsome squatter with roving eyes. Even worse, Ben Kosina, her predecessor at The Chronicle, has returned to claim his former job, leaving Shayne nothing but the obituary column and a simple choice: take it or leave it.
Her first assignment should be easy: eulogizing the accidental death of washed-up former child-star, Chucky Barnard, and filing her column. Yet when Shayne interviews the people closest to Chucky, his sister claims Chucky had everything to live for, suggesting his untimely death could only be murder.
Convinced this could be the perfect headline to put her life back on track, Shayne vows to find the truth, persuade a reticent homicide detective to investigate, and bring a killer to justice, all before Ben grabs her story and the killer makes Shayne his or her personal deadline.

I didn’t care for the main character at all and found the situations trite and absurd.
Although the MC had a bit too much paranoia for my taste, it was still a good read. Nice development as she figures out “who done it” and proves herself in her new job and city.
Enjoyable-I will miss the characters.
perfect bedtime tead.
It was a good read with interesting characters and plot. I will read the second book in the series.
Way too long for the content.
Fun read
Good read unexpected ending.
It was fun to read. Just an easy, entertaining read considering all the awful things going on in the real world. Great escape! Well written.
For a “Cozy Mystery”, this was exceptionally good. You’ll quickly become attached to the quirky (but believable) characters, and the plot is very interesting – who doesn’t love Hollywood and all it’s craziness? Lots to laugh at, and although there aren’t a ton of ‘surprises’ as far as who the murderer is, you definitely enjoy the ride. Satisfying ending that ties things up, but leaves threads open for the next in the series. Easy day read.
Really enjoyed reading this. Would like to read another in this series. Good characters.
Meh!
I had been reading books that were kind of intense. This was a nice and fun read that I could fall asleep after reading
Fun although totally predictable
