Escape to Malibu this summer with the Queen of the Beach Read!Investigative reporter Lara Stone is on holiday on the sun-drenched West Coast. Her LA-based boyfriend Alex has use of a postcard-perfect beach retreat in Malibu and has promised her two weeks of sun, sea and relaxation.
But the house has a secret. Fifty years earlier, Verity Jones, a charismatic singer-songwriter was found dead in the bath after one of her legendary parties. A tragic accident – or so everyone said at the time.
But Lara isn’t so sure. When she befriends her neighbour Martha Riding – a glamorous and celebrated writer – she finds out that Verity’s group of friends – bohemians, creatives and wannabe stars that lived in the Laurel Canyon area of LA – all had reason to want Verity out of the picture.
For Martha, finding out the truth about Verity’s death is one last story. But as Lara investigates and makes powerful enemies in the City of Stars, it could be her last story too.

Lorna –
This is a fab novel, as all of Tasmina Perryâs are, but itâs let down big time by the editing. So frustrating to see missing words, punctuation errors and names being spelled differently within the same paragraph – Eliot and Elliot; Elise and Elize; Bobby and Bobbie. There was also, at one point, a jumble of four words that were all in the wrong order! These errors occurred throughout the book and really affected my enjoyment of it Iâm afraid. Hopefully itâs just on Kindle and not in the printed version as wellâ¦
