Juliet Worthington-Smith - could there be a better white lady name? Our protagonist is a black out drunk whose wallet is found next to a murdered man that she knew. She can't remember anything from that night because she is, as often happens, very drunk. The police have her down as the only real suspect and now she is working to clear herself. She digs into the affair the murder victim was involved in and harasses his wife thinking she had plenty to gain. As time goes on we see Juliet's very dysfunctional life an family. Even now she can't resist drinking to excess most days. She teams up with a former boyfriend who is an investigative journalist in an effort to find the murdered. We learn of their odd past and Juliet's role in a stabbing that almost killed him. Basically, bad news follows this woman around or maybe she is the bad news? The pacing of this is a little off but the story will keep you interested and the ending includes an interesting twist.
