Soap opera star Alexis Peterson shocks her fans when she
leaves her number-one show, The Yearning Tide, for
The Bare and the Brazen. But she couldn't remain
working with the people who had once thought her a murderer.
Luckily her new soap opera has been crime-free—at least,
until the Daytime Emmy Awards. Alexis' coworker and
co-presenter Jackson Masters is a no-show until he literally
drops in during mid-presentation.
Despite the horror of Jackson's murder, Alexis can't help
but be happy to see Detective Frank Jakes again. She's
avoided him since she was cleared of murder because she has
a steady boyfriend, crime scene investigator Paul Silas.
Alexis must decide between Paul and Jakes before things get
even more entangled. Jakes seems overly eager for Alexis to
assist in the investigation, purportedly because of her soap
opera industry ties. Her invaluable assistance is readily
apparent when she recognizes the name of another murder
victim from a list of those killed the same way as Jackson.
Alexis' life becomes even more complicated when her thieving
ex-husband Randy reappears and wants a role in their
daughter's life.
Is there a serial killer targeting aspiring soap opera
hunks? Why is Jakes' partner so unhappy about Alexis'
involvement in the case? What is Randy up to? Why has he
returned to the U.S. after three years on the run? Will
Alexis choose Paul, Jakes or neither one? Will her
involvement in this case result in Alexis' demise?
DIAL EMMY FOR MURDER is the second Soap Opera mystery. Due
to some spoilers readers will probably enjoy the story more
if they read the books in order. There has to be some
suspension of disbelief, but once that's done this turns out
to be an enjoyable read. Ms. Davidson leaves a small plot
thread dangling to be answered in a future book. Those who
love the "had I but known" style will be in heaven with this
series.
Alexis Peterson’s days are filled with scheming,
backstabbing, adultery and murder. She is a soap opera star,
after all. But a new role has her feeling like she’s in the
horror business.
Tabloids and fans are stunned when soap star Alexis Peterson
leaves her popular show for another soap, but she’s too busy
preparing for her new job as a presenter at the Daytime
Emmy® Awards to notice. When her co-presenter goes missing
on award night, Alex realizes she has another murder mystery
on her hands.
Working behind the scenes to find out how her costar could
have met such an end, Alex invites handsome Detective Frank
Jakes back into her life. But first Alex must focus on
finding the killer before she sees another one of
Hollywood’s brightest stars burn out. Who knew soap operas
could get so dirty?
