This book drew me in initially, but there emerged a very strong credibility factor which I found hard to overcome. I loved the character of Mia and the meet cute with Nick, but the center of the story is very flawed. So, with the issues I found, it should have been a great read, but it’s still a good one.

Thanks Netgalley for this ARC.

Steadman's new novel is about a British actress, Mia, who comes to LA to try her hand at American films. While at an audition she has a strange run in with Emily, another actress, who asks her to add money to her parking meter. Mia is left with Emily's wallet and keys when Emily disappears. Thus begins a suspenseful mystery of what happened to Emily.
Overall the story is compelling and kept me reading with the suspense, however there were a few moments of "duh!" like after her apartment had been broken into multiple times. Why would you leave important items there? And the repetitive story of the actress on the Hollywood sign. I give it 3.5 stars, rounded up. Enjoyable read, could be finessed a bit more.
