Trashed

"Working for an infamous scandal sheet, Simone Glass is learning what they didn't teach her at Colombia's journalism school: Always wear gloves when digging through the trash, never give your real name, and above all, trust no one." "Since nobody will speak to the Asteroid on the record, Simone is forced to go undercover - posing as a cater waiter at a gala benefit, hiding out in a dumpster in hopes of hearing incriminating conversation, and even sneaking onto the set of the hot new TV series Suburban Indiscretions. But just how tough is Simone? What lies is she willing to tell? Who will she betray? And what if that betrayal leads to murder?" "When a soap opera star commits suicide, and her emotionally unstable assistant insists someone killed her, Simone sets out to uncover the real, untold story. But before she can put the pieces together, a stripper with sordid celebrity connections is found drenched in her own blood... and even Simone's most reliable sources begin acting paranoid. Suddenly a savage killer is ripping Tinseltown apart and handling Simone her most lethal leads ever. Can she expose the murderer before its too late - or will she become just the latest casualty of Hollywood's brutal deceptions?"--BOOK JACKET.Gaylin, Alison is the author of 'Trashed ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780451221131 and ISBN 0451221133.
