This humorous mystery featuring an actor turned amateur sleuth who teams up with a sexy detective to solve a murder is "a great romp of a read" (Candace Bushnell, New York Times–bestselling author of Sex and the City).
Bright lights, big trouble . . .
Dana Barry has nothing against rules. She just knows they're meant to be bent. So it's no wonder the single, twentysomething, aspiring actress loses her day job. Now her life is a mess . . . until she hears the Shopping Channel is auditioning. Relying on her knack for knowing what makes people tick, she lands a gig on air. But before she can say office politics, Dana is caught in the biggest drama of her life. The star host—a diva who terrorized the entire staff—is found dead. Dana knows the prime suspect is innocent.
The heat is on, and Dana thinks she's ready for it . . . until she tangles with the tall, dark and smoldering detective in charge. It's more fuel than she needs right now as she's trying to launch her career. But Dana's never been afraid to take chances . . . even when a single spark could ignite everything.
"A clever cocktail of mystery, laugh-out-loud humor and romance." Tami Hoag, New York Times–bestselling author of Secrets to the Grave
"An absolute delight . . . What fun!" —Susan Isaacs, New York Times–bestselling author of Compromising Positions
"Readers looking for a light beach read will enjoy the engaging writing and compelling plot." —Library Journal

      After years of struggling as an actress, Dana Barry is hired as the newest host for The Shopping Channel. But before the ink is even dry on her contract the star of the network, Kitty Todd, is found dead. The police seem to suspect the sound engineer, Lorenzo, but Dana knows he's in the clear--she and Lorenzo were together when Kitty was killed. Together Dana and Lorenzo set out to clear his name by finding out who really killed Kitty. In the process they uncover theft, adultery, blackmail, and multiple suspects at the network. The story is told in the first person by the insouciant but extremely observant Dana, who has surprisingly accurate insights into human nature. VERDICT Meister (Dorothy Parker Drank Here) presents a breezy, fast-paced contemporary with elements of suspense and mystery. While Dana is the only well-developed character, the array of secondary characters--even her love interests--remain one-dimensional. Readers looking for a light beach read will enjoy the engaging writing and compelling plot.--Heather Miller Cover, Homewood P.L., AL
