When her boss's nanny is murdered, Bailey Weggins is persuaded to find the killer before the police, an investigation that takes her from New York City to the glamorous retreats of Bucks County, where everyone is a suspect. - Baker & Taylor
When her boss's nanny is murdered, Bailey Weggins, a writer for a leading women's magazine, is persuaded to find the killer before the police, an investigation that takes her from New York City to the glamorous retreats of Bucks County, where everyone is a suspect, in a gripping mystery by the editor-in-chief ofCosmopolitan magazine. 75,000 first printing. - Blackwell North Amer
Bailey's in bed with her commitment-challenged lover K. C. when she gets a frantic call from her high-maintenance boss at Gloss magazine. Grabbing coffee and a cab outside her Greenwich Village apartment - the consolation prize in her divorce settlement - Bailey reluctantly heads uptown. At Cat Jones's Upper East Side town house, she finds something that seriously clashes with the chic decor: the dead body of the family's live-in nanny.
As Bailey - unofficially - delves into the murdered girl's past, she finds no shortage of A-list suspects. But when a startling discovery suggests that Cat may have been the intended victim, Bailey is suddenly up to her bed head in a high-profile investigation that's perfect fodder for a tabloid headline: Is someone trying to kill the editor of women's magazines?
With the spotlight on New York's glitzy media world, Bailey interviews back-stabbing editors, straying husbands, and one sexy, six-feet-two psychologist who could make her decide to kick K. C. to the curb. Sporting her pair of red slingbacks and armed with the investigative skills she's honed as a true crime reporter, she sets out on a search that takes her from Manhattan's exclusive Carnegie Hill area - the nanny heartland of America - to the ritzy weekend estates of Pennsylvania and Connecticut. Bailey will need all her street smarts and some lightning-fast detective work to catch a killer who could end up deleting her name from the masthead for good. - Hachette Book Group
