Description:
ENTERTAINING PREQUEL TO LAS VEGAS MURDER MYSTERY DEBUT NOVEL GETTING OFF ON FRANK SINATRA
One of the youngest and most popular cities in America, Las Vegas
stands as a desert metropolis built on gambling and entertainment at the
core. Drawing in millions of visitors and trillions of dollars to
southern Nevada, its brief century existence saw many different changes
over this time. Enchanted by this unlikely city locale, author Megan
Edwards continues to set ‘Sin City’ as the backdrop in her prequel to
the successful debut novel Getting Off on Frank Sinatra, with Full
Service Blonde: A Copper Black Mystery.
Full Service Blonde follows aspiring journalist Copper
Black, who meets Victoria McKimber, an outspoken prostitute at one of
Nevada’s legal brothels. Victoria offers Copper the exclusive right to
tell her story. Not only will the Las Vegas Light’s “calendar girl” get a
byline, but she can also impress her boyfriend and parents when they
arrive for the holidays.
“I love Las Vegas,” Edwards says. “I
never thought I would say that, but I came to Las Vegas to do some
research years ago and the city seduced me into staying. The unique
history makes it a fascinating place to live while also making it a
young city still defining itself. I wanted to give more insight into the
life of Copper Black and how she discovered her own love of Vegas,
too.”
Copper is busy with work, Christmas shopping, and
fantasizing about a whole week with her boyfriend, whom she hasn’t seen
in six months. She’s also helping her brother, a civic-minded pastor who
is spearheading plans for a new center to serve the homeless. Things
are hectic but under control when shocking news breaks: Victoria
McKimber has been found dead in a muddy ditch on the outskirts of town.
As
Copper investigates Victoria’s violent death, she puts her own life in
jeopardy and discovers that her brother is the target of a sinister
plot. Unless Copper can expose the truth about Victoria McKimber,
somebody just might get away with murder. With twists and turns
revealing more into Copper Black’s background and own journey toward
self-discovery, Full Service Blonde offers readers the chance to dive
further into the dark side of the Southwest’s city that never sleeps.
Megan
