Book Summary
When Dr. Rebecca Butterman returns home to find her neighbor an apparent suicide, she's wracked with guilt. As a psychologist and advice columnist, she should have been able to help. When the neighbor's mother suspects foul play and begs her to investigate, Rebecca puts this down to denial. Then she finds Madeline's blog, a zippy chronicle of dating adventures that suggests anything but depression. So when Rebecca's editor assigns her to do a column on the modern singles scene, Rebecca finds herself re-tracing the Madeline's steps into the world of speed-dating and web- blogging, where no one is who they claim to be. Over-eager suitors are the least of her worries: Dr. Butterman is about to discover just how deadly some advice can be.
When it comes to murder, everyone could use a little help.
