Synopsis from Goodreads
In the second book in the New York
Times bestselling mystery series, Veronica Mars is back with a case that will
expose the hidden workings of one of Neptune’s most murderous locations.
The Neptune Grand has always been
the seaside town’s ritziest hotel, despite the shady dealings and high-profile
scandals that seem to follow its elite guests. When a woman claims that she was
brutally assaulted in one of its rooms and left for dead by a staff member, the
owners know that they have a potential powder keg on their hands. They turn to
Veronica to disprove—or prove—the woman's story.
The case is a complicated mix of
hard facts, mysterious occurrences, and uncooperative witnesses. The hotel
refuses to turn over its reservation list and the victim won’t divulge who she
was meeting that night. Add in the facts that the attack happened months ago,
the victim’s memory is fuzzy, and there are holes in the hotel’s surveillance
system, and Veronica has a convoluted mess on her hands. As she works to fill
in the missing pieces, it becomes clear that someone is lying—but who? And why?
So, what do you think? Is it one that you'd like to add to your wish list? Have you already read it?
