Meredith Ogden is at the top of her game in Hollywood as Legwoman (assistant in modern terms) to Betinna Grant, the country's most widely read celebrity gossip columnist. But life changes for the 36-year-old journalist when she arrives for work at Grant's Bel Air home-office on a December morning in 1983 to find her famous boss dead, murdered. A book manuscript lies on the floor next to the death bed. Partnering with High-Profile crimes detective T.K. Raymond to find out who killed Grant and why, Meredith faces more than questions or answers. A volatile TV night-show host lobs threats because of a damaging news investigation about his background, Grant's children have demands on the office and valuable celebrity files. Meredith's home is broken into and searched, and she is assaulted.
With T.K. Raymond's help, and that of an unlikely team of colleagues, Meredith deals with the threats to herself, her future and even ghosts from her own past.
