The Bad Always Die Twice Cheryl Crane

Nicki Harper, the daughter of a screen goddess, was raised in a highly dysfunctional home with a bunch of crazies, but she didn't follow in her mother's footsteps. Instead, she is a real estate agent wanting a quiet, comfortable life with a little love and happiness. Nicki always thought that dead meant dead-until film icon Rex March turns up freshly murdered in the bed of Nicki's best friend after being reported dead six months ago. Distrustful of law enforcement, Nicki feels compelled to solve the murder herself. Her acquaintances range from the pinnacle of Hollywood royalty to the bottom of Tinseltown's barrel, a full cast of lively characters. Rex has a gaping hole where his eye used to be, and Nicki knows a lot of people with motive to murder. The killer is getting ready for a repeat performance, so Nicki must act fast before her own screen fades to black.
