Synopsis

From award-winning author Meg Gardiner, co-author of Michael Mann’s Heat 2—When a controversial female singer is murdered during a concert, forensic psychiatrist Jo Beckett fears the act was political. The polarizing pop star was also the President’s ex-wife, with secrets to die for. Now, Jo finds herself in a race to extinguish the conspiracy rumor mill—before it incites a level of violence that reaches America’s highest corridors of power. “Breathless suspense, slick plotting and a cast of compelling characters make this a solid addition to Edgar-winner Gardiner’s dossier of superlative thrillers.”—Booklist, Starred Review

I admit I got a little bored in the 1st half. But it certainly heats up. Quite a few layers of mystery. Just when......more

Goodreads review by Michael on July 28, 2010

After a disappointing second installment in the Jo Beckett series, Meg Gardiner bounces back with "The Liar's Lullaby." Singer Tasia McFarland is killed during her show in San Francisco. Normally the death of a country music star wouldn't be front page news, except that she's the ex-wife of the Presi......more

I loved Gardiner's first series and thought she ws poised for super-stardom, but her last two books have dilluted all promise......more
