A Beautiful Corpse, by Christi Daugherty

4.0

Harper McLain is a crime reporter for a newspaper in Savannah. She’s catching up with her best friend Bonnie when she’s called to a murder scene. When she and Bonnie arrive they realise they know the victim - Naomi Scott was a law student who worked part time at the same bar as Bonnie. Naomi has been shot. The police think her boyfriend Wilson did it. There are also two other suspects - the owner of the bar where Naomi worked as well as a fellow student who stalked her and led her to take a restraining order out on him. While working on the story Harper comes to realise that someone has been breaking in to her apartment on a regular basis and that they’re watching her all the time.

This is the second book in the Harper McLain series and the fact I haven’t read the first didn’t detract from my enjoyment of this one. A really well paced story and I look forward to reading more about Harper McLain soon.

Thanks to Netgalley, Harper Collins and Christi Daugherty for the ARC of this book in return for an honest review.
