couldn't even finish it. Ugh. ( )

The brutal slayings of a string of her patients in New York and a horrific attempt on her own life left Hailey Dean down, but not defeated. After a yearlong respite, former violent crimes prosecutor Hailey Dean finally returns to Manhattan, determined to rebuild a normal life and settle back into her growing practice as a therapist. But in a twist of fate, Hailey agrees to follow her heart and fight crime once again, this time in a new arena, in front of a camera. Under the hot lights of a TV studio, Hailey learns that the TV industry's not so glamorous, but downright deadly!
Waning celebrities, all stunning actresses—each one a shining star turned has-been, now struggling to get off the D-List and back into the limelight—meet with a bloody stage exit. Hailey's archenemy, Lieutenant Ethan Kolker, the NYPD cop who hunted Hailey down for the murders of her own patients, now wants the past forgotten and reaches out for Hailey's help to solve the murders. I'd rate this as ok - it has some humor, but it doesn't have much depth.

I didn't read the first one but this one wasn't bad. ( )
