Whacked

Dani Hale is obsessed with Hollywood murders, from Marilyn Monroe's suspicious death to the killings she writes about for the TV crime series Flesh and Bone. Smart, sexy, savvy, but not a little unsure of herself, Dani is determined to carve a place among the Los Angeles entertainment elite - becoming a creditcard-carrying member of the very world whose rituals and absurdities she loves to satirize. Life promises to be perfect for Dani. She has an almost-perfect boyfriend, Dave, a TV director who loves that Dani is "factory" - i.e., with no plastic surgery enhancements - and who always knows what's right for her career. At Flesh and Bone, she has an almost ideal job that lets her indulge her macabre forensic passions - even if the star's Restylane addiction forces Dani to do last-minute rewrites to delete her close-ups. She doesn't yet have the ideal figure, but a few more sessions at Barry's Boot Camp might fix that. And while that dream house in the Hollywood Hills eludes her, moving in seems just a matter of time - once Dave gets around to mentioning marriage. But something isn't quite right with their relationship, and Dani - a wily and inventive Internet snoop - learns that Dave's real creative talents are (1) lying and (2) cheating on her. Soon she's plunged into the world of singledom, enduring a battalion of bad dates with men whose peccadilloes would drive a lesser woman to kill. More sleuthing leads Dani to discover the truth behind Dave's liaisons - and the motives of the Other Woman who caused her all this misery. Ultimately, our heroine is driven to a dramatic choice that is as shocking as it is sensible in the girl-eat-girl world of Hollywood.
