Where's Billie? : a Skeeter Hughes mystery
Borger, Judith Yates
Adult Fiction BORGER
From Publishers' Weekly:
Borger, a former reporter for the St. Paul Pioneer Press, successfully taps into a parent's constant concern-how to protect children in an increasingly dangerous world-in her compelling debut, the first in a series to feature Marguerite "Skeeter" Hughes, a Minneapolis Citizen reporter. While researching a story on a missing 18-year-old girl, Billie Berry, Skeeter soon senses something complex developing, especially after Billie's sleazy ex-boyfriend tells her he's heard Billie might be "turning tricks and doin' meth." Further research takes Skeeter to the Mall of America, where she spies a handsome middle-aged man buying Abercrombie & Fitch clothes for a cute teen he's just met. Skeeter is horrified after she discovers the wolf is a middle-school principal. More snooping leads to threats to Skeeter's life as well as her marriage to a fellow reporter. Readers will want to hear more of Skeeter's punchy, first-person voice. (Oct.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved
