    Eve Lawson’s life is a carefully curated picture of success. A respected architect with a loving husband and a beautiful home, she has built a perfect world from the ground up. But that world fractures at 2:17 a.m. with a single, distorted voicemail from her estranged sister, Hannah. The message is a frantic, gasping plea for help, cut off by a chilling silence.
     
    
     
    Hannah has vanished. The police dismiss it as another one of her unstable episodes, a pattern of chaos Eve has spent a lifetime trying to escape. Yet the terror in her sister’s voice feels different this time. It claws at Eve, awakening a long-buried dread about the night their childhood ended in tragedy.
     
    
     
    As Eve digs into Hannah’s disappearance, she uncovers a hidden life of secrets and dangerous connections. Each clue pulls her deeper into a web of lies that implicates everyone she trusts, including her own husband. The pristine life she constructed begins to reveal sinister cracks, suggesting Hannah’s cry for help was just the first thread to pull.
     
    
     
    Now, to find her sister, Eve must confront the dark truth about their past she has worked so hard to forget. But someone is watching her every move, ensuring that the secrets buried years ago stay that way. The last message was a warning. Discovering the truth could be the last thing Eve ever does.

    In Agatha Christie’s classic, Five Little Pigs, beloved detective Hercule Poirot races to solve a case from out of the past. 
    Beautiful Caroline Crale was convicted of poisoning her husband, but just like the nursery rhyme, there were five other “little pigs” who could have done it: Philip Blake (the stockbroker), who went to market; Meredith Blake (the amateur herbalist), who stayed at home; Elsa Greer (the three-time divorcée), who had her roast beef; Cecilia Williams (the devoted governess), who had none; and Angela Warren (the disfigured sister), who cried all the way home. 
    Sixteen years later, Caroline’s daughter is determined to prove her mother’s innocence, and Poirot just can’t get that nursery rhyme out of his mind.

    A “Dead is the New Fabulous” Mystery (#2) 
    “Lindsay Maracotta has created in Lucy an exhilarating smart and sassy character. Her insider’s take crackles with fresh insight and laugh-out-loud one-liners.” —Janet Evanovich, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author 
    “Killingly amusing. Lindsay Maracotta wields the sharpest tongue since Nora Ephron banged out Heartburn. The book’s social observations are right on the money.” —The Chicago Tribune 
    Lucy Frampton just wants to make animated movies and to raise as functional a family as possible in the midst of Hollywood’s special brand of madness. Unfortunately, when her producer-husband Kit scores his first blockbuster movie, he is stricken with the dreaded "Mogus Virus"—(a common ailment!), which compels seemingly down-to-earth people to hire personal chefs and trainers and share enough air-kisses to inflate the Hindenburg. And adding to the crazy is the suspicious on-location death of his director, the much-despised whiz-kid Jeremy Lord. What’s a rational wife to do? 
    Suddenly Lucy's only hope of maintaining some semblance of domestic bliss is to dive alone into the Pacific Palisades shark pool of actors, agents, industry honchos, lavish spenders, spoiled brats, ex-wives and voluptuous nannies, and surface with the killer. Her only weapon in this ocean of sex, lies, and camera phones is her irreverence and smarts —and they may not be formidable enough to protect Lucy from the dangerous predator who's circling....
