Maci at a young age decided that she had enough of her
poverty life in Louisiana, so she heads to Nashville knowing
that all she wanted was to become a country singer. Maci
gets her wish and becomes a country singer.
All that changes when at one of her concerts gunshots are
fired. The incident was an attempt on her life. A crazed fan
was trying to kill her, but it's not the first attempt on
her life. For some reason, there are many more to come.
Maci goes into hiding, and no one can figure out why she is
being stalked. Maci realizes that she really has no true
friends. The closest one is her guard that protects her
home. Her manager is turning his back on her, and so is the
record company. Why? Because she refuses to do any more live
performances and will lose them money. Along the way, Maci
runs into several people including the cop who saved her
life at the concert, and the gentlemen that drove her back
to Nashville. So the question is: how are they all
intertwined and why?
Tom Carter writes a great county star book. Don't know if
he was ever in Nashville, but he sure knows a lot about
country music. I loved this book. While NASHVILLE: MUSIC AND
MURDER had a lot of twist and turns, I was not confused at
all. Tom Carter also showed that sometimes getting what you
want out of life is not always the best thing. Sometimes
you just have to make sure you treat people right. I would
like to see a sequel to this book. How did Maci end up?
So if you want a great read, and you like country or any
music, pick up NASHVILLE: MUSIC AND MURDER.
As a teenager, Maci Willis fled the poverty and
sexual abuse of her Louisiana childhood with the hope of
finding a new life as a Nashville recording star or greasy
spoon waitress. Despite the odds, the former fate unfolded,
and Maci recorded hit songs for two decades while indulging
a pampered lifestyle void of risks and regrets.
But all of that changed during one fateful
performance.
While Maci sang a fourth encore to a crowd of
18,000, the music was shattered by a gunshot fired by an
obsessed fan. She emerged triumphant from the attempt on her
life—only to face another attempt shortly afterwards. Was it
a coincidence? Or was something more sinister at work?
Nashville: Music & Murder
follows Maci's frantic flight from danger—and toward
redemption. Along the way, it exposes the glamour of
stardom, the loneliness of fame and the seedier side of the
Nashville music scene.
Antagonized by the mass media, victimized by her record
label executives, stalked by deranged fans and hunted by
local and federal authorities, Maci leads readers through a
fast-paced descent into hysteria, chaos and murder.
In an attempt to get away from it all, Maci finds herself
returning to the childhood she fled. In the end, the woman
who faced life on her terms alone soon finds out that
loneliness is a walking prison from which she’ll never walk
away.
