[This is Cheryl Crane's sequel to The Bad Always Die Twice]

This mystery series set in Hollywood and Palm Springs is equal parts Jackie Collins, with its glitz and glamour, and James Ellroy, hitting the hard-boiled streets of LA. Who better to tell the tale than Cheryl Crane, daughter of Hollywood legend Lana Turner and actor-restaurateur Josef Stephen Crane.

Nikki Harper, the daughter of a screen goddess, was raised in a completely dysfunctional home populated by a cast of crazies -- but she did not follow in her mother's footsteps. Instead, Nikki became a real estate agent who wants a quiet, comfortable life with a little love and happiness thrown in. Nikki is a little distrustful of law enforcement but enamored of her famous mother, the actress Victoria Bordeaux. So when the son of an iconic Hollywood producer turns up dead in the dumpster behind her mother's home with a pair of pruning shears stuck in his chest, reluctant sleuth Nikki steps up to the plate to solve the crime. Victoria's gardener, Jorge Delgado, is the prime suspect. One man deserved to die, and the other to live -- but the DA's office got it backwards, and Nikki must find a way to prove that her childhood friend is innocent.
