Alison Gaylin, a journalist who covers arts and entertainment, is the author of Hide Your Eyes and You Kill Me. She lives in upstate New York with her husband, daughter, and dog. Author websites: alisongaylin.com; firstoffenders.typepad.com.
Gaylin's giddy hardcover debut follows young reporter Simone Glass on her short but shocking infiltration of Hollywood's sleazy side. Simone, a recent Columbia journalism grad, heads for L.A. to work for a slick weekly that goes out of business almost immediately. She grabs a position at the L.A. bureau of the trashy tabloid Asteroid and plunges into the world of celebrity gossip. Reluctantly rummaging through TV superstar Emerald Deegan's garbage, Simone discovers a shoe belonging to the recently murdered comeback kid Nia Lawson. Then Emerald becomes the next victim, and one of her bracelets is found in another future victim's trash. When Simone carelessly wears the bracelet to a party, she catches the killer's eye as a potential target. Gaylin (You Kill Me) has tremendous fun with stereotypical tabloid fodder, from a closeted gay superstar and a desperate, underage stripper to wild Hollywood parties and car chases. The hectic pace and huge cast of extras keep the reader guessing right to the end. (Sept.)
