Summary

A gripping new novel from best-selling author J. D. Mason about a wealthy Texas family and the one woman who holds - and will reveal - all their dirty secrets.

Desdimona Green has been the name on everyone’s lips in Blink, Texas. Twenty-five years ago, at the age of 18, she shot and killed one of Blink’s wealthiest men, a pillar of the community, oil baron Julian Gatewood. The Gatewood family was considered untouchable, so the whole state of Texas was rocked to its core over Julian’s murder. But people were even more shocked to discover that Desi was Julian’s daughter and that her mother had been his lover for years.

When Desi gets out of jail and promptly inherits millions from Julian’s estate, everyone knows that there is much more to the story - and Desi Green is the keeper of the Gatewood secrets, including what happened the night Julian died. When a famous true-crime reporter shows up on her doorstep wanting the full story, Desi agrees to reveal all, much to the horror of the Gatewoods, who will do anything to stop her. But Desi has more than a few tricks up her sleeve.

J. D. Mason is the author of Somebody Pick Up My Pieces, That Devil’s No Friend of Mine, You Gotta Sin to Get Saved, This Fire down in My Soul, Don’t Want No Sugar, And on the Eighth Day She Rested, One Day I Saw a Black King, and Take Your Pleasure Where You Find It. She lives in Denver with her two children.

“[J. D. Mason’s] portrayals of her characters and their innermost thoughts bring the readers right into the emotional center of the story. Those who enjoy Carl Weber and Eric Jerome Dickey will add Mason to their list of favorites.” ( Booklist)

Great voice acting and good story but....

I really enjoyed this book and the voice acting was soo good it just enhanced the story... all the way up until the last 3 chapters. The end of the story just felt unfinished and at this point you have such high hopes for the characters that the ending just feels hollow and rushed, like there was no ending. Not sure if they are making room for book two but I was just left like hanging and not in a good way.

Really enjoyed it

So good! I’m not trying to be funny but I didn’t expect such an engaging book. The character development was really good, sad about her friend though 🥲

surprisingly enjoyable

This was a freebie and I was a bit dubious, but happily surprised. the novel has an excellent plot, convincing characters and is neatly edited. My only,, but important, reservation is unnecessary graphic sex scenes, particularly rape which was subsequently "enjoyed" err... no... never ok obvs hence reducing to 3*
