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
