Twenty-something Robbie Ivy wants to keep her life as simple and commitment-free as possible. Who needs a high-pressure career, a relationship, or a family anyway? But Robbie's life gets inextricably complicated when her estranged father shows up with a shocking revelation about two teenage girls who disappeared in South Beach. One of the missing girls is Robbie's stepsister Kate―a stepsister Robbie never knew existed. Unwilling to reestablish family ties, Robbie is hesitant to get involved―until the body of her stepsister's friend washes up in Indian Creek. Desperate to find her missing stepsister, Robbie immerses herself in the unfamiliar world to which Kate may have fallen prey: the sexy, sizzling South Beach club scene. Swept up in a corrupt, destructive society, Robbie searches for a cold-blooded killer in the hottest South Beach hot spots. But in this see-and-be-seen world, everyone is dressed to kill, people are dying for a chance to get beyond the velvet rope and someone is watching. Robbie may have to choose between saving her stepsister―and saving herself.

About the Author:
Sharon Potts, a native of New York, graduated from New York's University's Stern School of Business. Before migrating to Miami, Potts worked in public accounting. In Miami, Potts served as a managing director of an International staffing company and president of an executive search/accounting recruitment firm. Sharon is the award-winning, critically acclaimed author of In Their Blood, Someone's Watching, and The Devil's Madonna. Potts lives in Miami Beach with her husband, Joe.
From Booklist:
Potts’ second effort is a twisty mystery that draws on headline news—specifically, the drugging of high-school girls on vacation, who are then kidnapped and forced into prostitution. In one eventful day, heroine Robbie Ivy, who left a high-powered corporate job to be a bartender on Miami’s South Beach, learns that she has a half sister she never knew about and that the girl has vanished into the neon jungle of South Florida. In her attempts to find the girl and bring about a reconciliation with their father, she bumps up against a diverse crew of eccentrics. One is surely a murderer, and this is where Potts excels: at camouflaging which plot twists are red herrings and which contain the truth. The revelations in the last few chapters are stunningly well handled. This is far grittier than the typical mixing of mystery and chick lit, but it’s effectively told from a female perspective. Thus, we have Robbie and her lover discussing the validity of their relationship while they stalk a killer. An appealing sleuth and a beguiling mystery. --Don Crinklaw
