Jane Jenkins is a snarky celebutante, famous for being famous, until she is convicted of the murder of her wealthy socialite mother. After being released from prison on a technicality, Janie tracks down the one lead she has on the real killer and is startled by what she uncovers about her mother's past in small-town South Dakota.
VERDICT Clever, original, and darkly witty, this mystery's many twists will keep you on your toes. Little has infused a compelling page-turner with well-aimed jabs at the current social media-driven culture. (LJ 6/15/14)
