Description
Six friends. A bride to be. One murder. Too many secrets. After drinking too much at her bachelorette party, Maggie Trueheart wakes to find a stranger in her bed. To make matters worse, a phone call brings the devastating news that her friend Angie was murdered some time after they parted ways the night before. Kelly Delaney, who left the party early, is the first of Maggie's friends to face questions from Chicago homicide detective Ron O'Reilly. After taking a closer look at the other women who attended the party, O'Reilly concludes that at least some of them are lying. As the clock ticks down to the wedding day and more shocking secrets are revealed, the murderer zeros in on another one of the girls. Can the killer be stopped before there is another victim?Product Details

Reviews
"The creator of the High Society mysteries (Well Read and Dead, 2009, etc.) has produced a stand-alone that does for the 1980s what Mary McCarthy's The Group did for the '30s, with more than a little mystification thrown in"--Kirkus Reviews
"Catherine O'Connell has written a detailed and deftly plotted thriller that is as much a romance novel as it is a mystery with several twists. It's doubtful even the most canny reader will guess the culprit until the tense final chapters, and the revelations in Kelly's part of the epilogue will stay in the mind for a long time."--NY Journal
"The story sashays in some surprising directions before briskly pulling all the disparate threads together in a slam-bang finale. O'Connell tells this intricately plotted tale with verve"--Publishers Weekly Starred Review
