Indie Darling — Lauren Nossett
A brilliant breakout novel from ITW Thriller Awardâ€"winning author Lauren Nossett -- a mystery set in Nashville, where a Dolly Partonâ€"loving private detective drawn into the disappearance of an enigmatic pop star
Nashville is a city of two faces, where the glitter often masks the grit.
Kelly Williams helps women. Sisters in search of lost siblings. Wives determined to uncover affairs. Daughters haunted by men lingering outside their windows. Clients trust her because she listens, she believes them, and over the years she's honed a specialized skill set.
Kelly is a Dolly Partonâ€"loving, sports-car-driving private investigator in Nashville, Tennessee. Her latest client, Sarah-Faith Owens, comes to her after receiving threatening messages. Something about the woman feels familiar, and Kelly realizes she's Seraph, the magnetic, polarizing lead singer of the indie music sensation The Garden Snakes. With feminist anthems, cryptic lyric easter eggs, and an electrifying stage presence, Seraph has built a fiercely loyal following -- and attracted a number of critics. At that level of fame, her stalker could be anyone.
Then, in the middle of a Nashville performance, Seraph is shot on stage -- and the ambulance carrying her disappears. As the city reels and conspiracy theories swirl, Kelly is pulled into a dangerous web of secrets involving Seraph's bandmates, her troubled past, and the high cost of stardom.
Propulsive and atmospheric, Indie Darling is both a page-turning mystery and a powerful meditation on art, obsession, and the perils of being a female artist in today's celebrity-obsessed world.
