Description

As a reporter, she's used to covering the news. Now she's the headline. Alex Vlodnachek has been a reporter for 12 years, a P.R. rep for three months, and a murder suspect for all of 24 hours. When her agency's double-dealing CEO is stabbed, scheming co-workers cast the new redhead as a compelling red herring. The story is media catnip-especially her salacious nickname- Vlod the Impaler. Even Alex has to admit she looks guilty. Out of a job and under suspicion, Alex is running low on cash, when she's visited by a second disaster- her family. Soon her tiny bungalow is bursting with her nearest and not-so-dearest. To keep herself out of jail-and save what's left of her sanity-Alex returns to her reporting roots. She goes undercover to reclaim her life, break the story, and unmask a murderer. Pretty much in that order. What she doesn't know- The killer also has a to-do list. And Alex is on it.
