Synopsis

The end of her high-profile broadcasting career came too soon for TV journalist Alison Reynolds—bounced off the air by executives who wanted a "younger face." With a divorce from her cheating husband of ten years also pending, there is nothing keeping her in L.A. any longer. Cut loose from her moorings, Ali is summoned back home to Sedona, Arizona, by the death of a childhood friend. Once there she seeks solace in the comforting rhythms of her parents' diner, the Sugarloaf Café, and launches an on-line blog as therapy for others who have been similarly cut loose.

But when threatening posts begin appearing, Ali finds out that running a blog is far more up-close and personal than sitting behind a news desk. And far more dangerous. Suddenly something dark and deadly is swirling around her life . . . and a killer may be hunting her next.

From AudioFile:

When Alison Reynolds is ousted from a television job in Los Angeles, she heads to Sedona, Arizona, to investigate the death of her closest friend. The police believe the friend committed suicide by driving off a mountain road, but Alison thinks it was murder. Susanna Burney expertly conveys the many emotions of the central characters, particularly Alison's anger as she fights for the truth of her friend's death. Burney also conveys a sense of place; the listener is drawn into the red rock scenery of northern Arizona. Some of the male voices sound adolescent, but that's a minor quibble. The tempo is right, the emotional tones convincing. Listeners will be captured and held. R.E.K. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
