DEAD CELEB, THE by Lindsay Maracotta - FIRST EDITION BOOK

Deep within Tinsel Town's most charmed circles - where moguls hobnob over thousand-dollar cigars while their children trick-or-treat for Godiva chocolates - learning to tell one's lovers from one's enemies takes even more cunning than becoming an A-list star. In the midst of this cutthroat community, award-winning animator Lucy Freers is trying to hold on to a normal family life even though the recent blockbuster success of her movie-producer husband has driven the sense out of him. But when she stumbles on the corpse of Jeremy Lord, the film world's hottest young director and an even hotter womanizer, who also happened to be working on her husband's latest film, Lucy's hopes for domestic bliss shatter. Though the initial verdict is death by natural causes, Lucy cannot deny that this was no accident, and that the killer probably lurks within her exclusive Hollywood enclave. With a wisecrack as her only weapon and a hilarious irreverence for the trappings of fame and fortune, Lucy launches a white-knuckle investigation.
