One of Us Is Dead

"Scheming mean girls, sex and scandal, secrets and lies...what's not to love?"--Lisa Unger, New York Times bestselling author of Last Girl Ghosted The Real Housewives meets murder in this deliciously savage and wildly entertaining thriller from Jeneva Rose, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Perfect Marriage, You Shouldn't Have Come Here, and Home Is Where the Bodies Are. Buckhead isn't a place you live, it's a place you survive. And that applies even to the wealthy housewives that have it all. Fancy cars, designer clothes, and daily salon appointments aren't nearly enough to keep them fulfilled and happy. Because in this town, privilege and opulence go hand in hand with betrayal and revenge. Jenny, the owner of Glow, an exclusive membership-only beauty salon, knows that better than anyone, because she knows everything about these housewives--down to each individual strand of hair. Despite the toxicity, Jenny keeps her focus on running her business, and keeping the peace. However, peace proves to be impossible when one of her clients is murdered. Now, it's up to Jenny and her knowledge of neighborhood secrets and gossip to help the police solve the case. It won't be easy though, because while Buckhead may be all about appearances, nothing is as it seems. Never have mean girls been meaner, nor murder been so much fun than in this "sublimely bitchy" (Kirkus Reviews) and scandalous suspense novel from Jeneva Rose, the "queen of twists" (Colleen Hoover).
