{"product_id":"adorably-dead-lindsay-maracotta-9781503058958","title":"Adorably Dead","description":"Lucy Frampton lives amid the glitzy trappings of Los Angeles. Her friends enjoy intimate relationships with aroma therapists and body sculptors, and her neighbors' estates boast screening rooms and humidity-controlled wine cellars. The exclusive Windermere Academy, which her daughter, Chloe, attends, has a shrink on the payroll to lead \"encounter sessions\" when tiny tempests threaten the students' sunny days. And even bit players in the Windermere school pageants have publicists and agents. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBut Lucy, a sensible, transplanted Midwesterner, keeps her sights down-to-earth. She's an outstanding mom, a sexy wife, and an animator whose career is rocketing. But then, in a flash, her perfect world of storyboard mornings and car-pool afternoons goes from romantic comedy to film noir. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLucy's new nanny, Brandon, college friend-and onetime lover (but that's another story)-is shot dead while driving her husband's car. It's unclear who the intended victim was, but then Lucy stumbles upon something even more chilling: a video hidden among Brandon's things that shows a child committing a murder. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThough the authorities yawn, Lucy suspects the killer is cruising through classrooms and lunchrooms, as dewy-eyed innocent as any other kid. With a razor wit and a hilarious irreverence for the trappings of fame as her only weapons, Lucy launches a one-woman investigation, leading smack into the looking-glass world of child actors, where nine-year-olds can fire their own parents, where a child's smile commands top dollar-and a little killer is about to have the last laugh  \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e*Originally published as Playing Dead.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lindsay Maracotta\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1503058956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781503058958\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/21\/2015\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 302\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.77lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.63d","brand":"Lindsay Maracotta","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46526257398015,"sku":"9781503058958","price":14.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_a62d6969-82b7-4ba1-b9fe-60feaf3daf75.jpg?v=1737555643","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/adorably-dead-lindsay-maracotta-9781503058958","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
