#TagMe for Murder
Book Two in the Trending Topic Mysteries
When murder trends too close to home, social media influencer Coco Cline will have to swipe through a sea of trolls to tag a killer.
After cracking her first case, Coco Cline's life is finally getting back to normal—or as normal as life can be when you have over three million followers online. With a thriving business, a devoted boyfriend, and her two friends living right up the street, Coco is set to have the best summer ever until Larry and Rosalynn Dunmer move into the condo next door.
Coco and her squad do their best to avoid the confrontational duo, but when a party at a swanky new wine bar brings everyone together, things become less than neighborly faster than a celebrity-themed hashtag goes viral. Larry levels some super shady threats toward Jasper, which could have dire consequences for his multimedia empire. Worse, when Larry washes ashore, dead, with a corkscrew sticking out of his neck, the suspect spotlight lands on Jasper.
Before Jasper’s rep—and life—are ruined, Coco calls upon her tech-savvy sleuthing skills to clear her best friend's name. She soon discovers that Larry made quite a few enemies during his very short stay in town. But who hated him enough to kill him?
Return to the beaches of Central Shores as Coco Cline and her squad assemble to catch a killer before they get canceled…permanently.
