WHACKED: In this deliciously devilish beach read, chick lit meets Fatal Attraction as former E! Entertainment Television host Jules Asner weaves together a tale of relationships, betrayal, and very modern revenge. Dani Hale is obsessed with Hollywood murders, from Marilyn Monroe’s suspicious death to the killings she writes about for the TV crime series, Flesh and Bone. Life promises to be perfect for Dani, but something isn’t quite right with her relationship with her almost-perfect, TV director boyfriend Dave. Through inventive snooping, Dani learns that Dave is lying and cheating on her. More sleuthing leads Dani to discover the truth behind Dave’s liaisons—and the true motives of the Other Woman who caused her all this misery. Ultimately, our heroine is driven to a dramatic extreme that is as shocking as it is sensible in the girl-eat-girl world of Hollywood. A novel with a killer eye for the crimes and obsessions of modern relationships, WHACKED is a wry, arresting foray into a realm that its author knows inside and out. Jules Asner is well known for her many years as the face of E! Entertainment Television where she hosted the award-winning Revealed with Jules Asner, E! News Live, and the Wild On! travel series. She lives in New York City and Los Angeles with her husband, film director Steven Soderbergh. National publicity out of Los Angeles and New York.
