Celebrity-studded parties that last long into the night. Camera flashes and designer clothes. And a body found floating in the Venice Beach canals. But let's start at the beginning. Justine Childs is your average teenage girl, until the day ex-child-star Eva-Kate Kelly moves in across the way. Eva-Kate is gorgeous, seductive, and eager to invite Justine into her glittery world. Their relationship intensifies quickly, but there is a lot they aren't telling each other, and in the midst of the whirlwind, a girl lies dead. Who killed Eva-Kate Justine swears her innocence-and she'd like you to hear her side of the story. One of Us Is Lying meets The A-List in this Technicolor tale of rich and beautiful kids growing up too fast in a city that devours its young.
Zara Lisbon's debut is as fast-paced, fascinating, and frightening as celebrity itself. --BJ Novak
