Publisher's summary

Anxious to get married, thirty-year-old Virginia Carey lands a job as an operator at a police tip line, where she thinks finding a husband will be easy. There’s Charlie Ford, a surprisingly sweet homicide detective, and charming police chief Declan “Deck” Brady. But just as Virginia’s plans begin to fall into place and she can almost picture a ring on her finger, she answers a call from Verona—a mysterious woman who provides a tip about four bodies on a remote local beach.

Verona, a sex worker, also gives Virginia details on sordid and raucous parties attended by law enforcement officers—and on the strange fetishes of cops she has been involved with. Then comes an explosive tip: Verona thinks it’s a police officer who is responsible for the killings. But it can’t be true—the cops Virginia works with are marriage material, even if they are a little rough around the edges.

While Verona trusts that her tips are being heard because she and Virginia have formed an unusual connection, Virginia realizes that the key to solving the case is ultimately in her hands. The tip line will reveal the truth about those murders. So long as Virginia is willing to hear it.

Critic reviews

"Audiobook narrator Sarah Naughton expertly matches the story’s quick pace and compelling plot. The tone of her portrayal evolves along with Virginia, from naive to nefarious [...] Recommended for fans of Colleen Hoover, Katie Sise, and Kelly J. Ford."—Library Journal

Loved it

This is not your usual churn and burn thriller. It is really beautifully written and thoughtful. It mostly centers around the internal dialog of the main character which is really interesting for this genre. The performance was outstanding as well.

It’s okay

It wasn’t really a thriller. More of a romance/chic-lit with some mystery thrown in.

Terrible story.

This was one of the worst books I have purchased. It had very little to do with Gilboa Beach murders.
