"The dog-eat-dog, dirty world of Hollywood PR crisis management is brilliantly evoked in this addictive crime thriller."
Love noir-ish crime fiction that exposes the dark and dirty side of humanity? You’ll be blown away by Jordan Harper’s Everybody Knows. Set on an enticing LA stage — a place where grubby secrets are barely concealed by a thin veneer of gloss and glitter — its female lead is a woman to root for as she investigates her boss’s death.
At the same time, Mae’s journey sees her seek to redeem herself from concealing the dirty secrets of the rich and famous in her career as a hotshot publicist.
A specialist in supressing scandals and bad news at one of Hollywood's most powerful crisis PR firms, Mae finds herself fighting the very machinery she’s long sustained when her boss is killed outside the Beverly Hills Hotel. As she begins to investigate his murder, joining forces with her ex, Mae is thrust into an entanglement of “Hollywood sickos”.
Told in an addictive, high-octane style — think rapid-fire bullets — Everybody Knows is sharp, sassy, suspenseful, and an undeniably wild ride of crime fiction.
