‘Murder, she felt fairly sure, was not the kind of “Purpose of Visit” calculated to speed her through immigration.’ Why would anyone want to kill Penny Varnavides, bestselling author of the “Teen Dreams” series?

In tribute to her friendship with Penny, Lindsay Gordon agrees to investigate. Reluctantly she leaves her Californian haven for the fraught world of London book publishing. And as her investigation reveals an incendiary mixture of soured relationships and seething rivalries, Lindsay must face the frightening truth. Someone in Penny’s literary or love life must have been driven to murder…
