NASHVILLE: MUSIC & MURDER
Tom Carter

Reviewed by Sharon Salituro
Posted December 8, 2017

Suspense | Thriller

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.

SUMMARY

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 lifeโ€”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 dangerโ€”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 sheโ€™ll never walk away.
