Spin - A Rock 'n' Roll Murder Mystery (Paperback)

EVERYONE'S FAVORITE SLEUTHING JOURNALIST IS BACK Eugenie D. West's 'Reporting is Murder'(c) series continues with her dazzling new thriller, SPIN. Set against the exciting and intricate world of a touring rock band, SPIN affords readers a glimpse into the passions, the pettiness, and the pitfalls of the private world of rock stars, a realm seldom revealed to outsiders. When Aidan Perry, lead singer and composer for the classic rock band Mirage, is found dead in his dressing room just moments before a gig, Berkshire County Chief Detective Jack Draper is tasked with finding the culprit. To complicate things, Jack's former girlfriend, sleuthing reporter Gracie Barufaldi, is on the scene, along with her current flame and long time friend of the slain star, high powered lawyer Ben Holmes. Jack and Gracie, although no longer a couple, nonetheless work together to solve the crime: Jack uses his resourcefulness, his training and his expertise to uncover clues and identify suspects, while Gracie brings her usual 'outside the box' thinking and uncanny knack for pulling together disparate bits of information to the case. Set in the beautiful Berkshire Mountains of Western Massachusetts, SPIN is brimming with what have become the hallmarks of West's writing: vibrant, unforgettable characters, surprising developments, and intriguing revelations. West's decade-plus of reporting on a range of stars in the music industry imbues SPIN, the fifth book in the 'Reporting is Murder'(c) series, with authenticity and excitement. Author Eugenie D. West lives in a rural part of the northeastern U.S., holds an M.A. in English from Boston College and is fluent in several languages. West was a news reporter for more than 15 years, and an entertainment reporter for regional and national publications for more than 10. She also worked in a branch of law enforcement and ran her own entertainment PR firm for several years. Because West takes to heart the motto, 'write what you know best, ' protagonist Gracie Barufaldi-the star of the 'Reporting is Murder'(c) series- is a journalist for a rural newspaper, and an Italian, curly-haired version of the author (who is French, and only has curls with a perm ). Like West, Gracie is also an inventive and intuitive chef who loves to cook for her extended family and friends. West (and Gracie) enjoys gardening and traveling; both are animal lovers. West in particular shares her home with a cat, and her surrounding property with deer, wild turkeys, coyotes, foxes, and a very large black bear who makes an appearance at her bird feeders in the spring.
