Assistant Attorney General Marianne Melone, along with her
three best friends, leaves an off-limits mob bar in the wee
hours of the morning and sees an SUV barreling down the
road. Almost in front of them, a bloody body is tossed from
the car. They leave the crime scene by justifying that they
can offer no pertinent information. Marianne's powerful
boss discovers her deception and fires her. A devastated
Marianne is comforted by her friends as they promise to
work toward her reinstatement.
Left on her own, Marianne uncovers a complicated trail of
drugs, sex and murder that leads to a very distinguished
private college. The dean offers her a job as the college
attempts to thwart the investigation. Marianne does a
balancing act as she's caught between two powerful men with
their own agendas to use her as a pawn. Unable to trust
anyone, even a hunky ex-cop who's shrouded in mystery,
Marianne races to find the killer before he strikes again.
Debut author Celeste Marsella writes a thriller that
merges Sex n the City with James Patterson's
Murder Club in a sexy new series. With Ms. Marsella's
background as an attorney in criminal law, she portrays
realistic scenarios with several plotlines that keep
readers guessing who the killer is until the final climatic
end.
They’re overworked, underpaid, and unstoppable: four young
women in a big-city attorney general’s office. But when
best friends Marianna, Laurie, Shannon, and Beth find
themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time, it’s not
just their careers that are in danger—it’s their
lives.
It’s after midnight when a young coed’s body
is thrown from a car—right before their eyes. When their
boss finds out that their presence at the scene might
jeopardize the prosecution, Marianna takes the fall,
exiled to a job inside an ivy-walled private college—where
the murdered girl had been a student. Suddenly Marianna is
in the eye of the storm alone as a vicious killer strikes
again…and again. With no one to trust on either side of
the law except themselves and a secretive ex-cop,
Marianna, Laurie, Shannon, and Beth will have to join all
their smarts, savvy, and loyalty to stop the killer from
taking one of their own.…
