Paint Her Face Dead — Jane Johnston

Reporter Louisa Evans smelled a hard-hitting expose when she signed up for SUM - a new EST-like group encounter marathon. But when the green-haired punkette next to her dropped dead of cyanide poisoning, Louisa got more than a story - she got a murder. She also got nailed as the prime suspect.

With a reporter's nose for trouble, Louisa plunges into the seamy world of lower Manhattan and into a harrowing hunt for a desperate killer. Soon she's next on the hit list...and onto the biggest story of her career - if she can live long enough to tell it.
