A former child star was dead, and Justine Childs was here to tell you she didn't do it.

There's something about getting to peek into the lives of the young, rich, and reckless. Though I disapproved of their lifestyle and life choices, I found myself unable to look away. That was pretty much kept me flipping the pages during the first part of the book, while the mystery became more compelling in the second half of the book and drove my interest.

Justine was the child of a celebrity therapists, who always seemed to be on the fringes of celebrity. Then, as luck would have it, former child star, Eva-Kate Kelly, moved in next-door, and took Justine under her wing. The whole time, I thought this was an open and shut case, but then Lisbon threw a little twist in, which had me reevaluating previous information, and she revealed some more information, and then there was another twist. Let me tell you, by the end of the book, I had totally changed my tune. I still wasn't sure what happened, but I knew it wasn't what I originally believed. Good job, Zara Lisbon!

I know there are going to be a bunch of people, who will be frustrated with the ending. It's a cliffhanger ending, BUT I am ok with where Lisbon left me, because it was a logical break point. That said, I am more than looking forward to the sequel and finding out what really happened to Eva-Kate Kelly.
