What you need to know before your trail

Bree’s new home is luxurious and private, with a fancy Beverly Hills address. What a shame it’s not hers. Widowed, penniless, living in her car, and out of options, she’s climbed the fence and crashed in the pool house. All she wants is a good night’s sleep. But when Sophie, the absentee owner, finds her, she gets a whole lot more.

Sophie invites Bree back for a party. When it winds down, Bree can’t resist sneaking upstairs to sleep in a real bed. But the next morning, she wakes to find Sophie’s dead body floating in the pool. As the resident vagabond, she’s both the only witness and the prime murder suspect.

Bree knows she shouldn’t run, but her husband’s death was mysterious, too. If she’s going to clear her name, she’s going to have to work fast. Because the killer is still out there, and she’s next.

Travel Guide

Pools and Beverly Hills

Think lots of grand boulevards and big houses when you read this book. We start and end on Rodeo Drive as someone has a house here with a pool. There’s a lot of exploring areas where someone might want to flip a house and so you get to go through several neighbourhoods in and around the city.

Rodeo Drive for example is known for shops but here we see its residential side. It has an alley almsot as wide again so its residents can hide the bins. Quite right.

There’s a lot of pool houses in Beverely Hills and it sounds amazing. Water always spells danger in a novel though and in this one, it’s no different….
