After a near-death experience, Sunny Randall is ready to lighten her load as a PI, that is until she is called upon by billionaire media magnate Bill Welch to investigate the disappearance of his son, Dylan, the cofounder of the Gonzo Energy Drink company. Lazy, unscrupulous and a notorious partier, Dylan isn’t exactly reliable. But Dylan’s mother, Lydia, insists this time is different. She knows him. He’s her son. And she believes he’s in serious danger.
Unable to turn down the Welches’ life-changing offer, Sunny takes on the case, starting off by befriending Dylan's smart young business partner, Sky, who seems like his polar opposite. Sky is bright, innovative, ambitious and empathetic — yet surprisingly, she adores Dylan, and desperately wants Sunny to find him.
As Sunny traces the marks left behind by Dylan’s past, she must unearth all the skeletons in his closet. She discovers not only his bad behavior with women, but also his reckless moves within the business world, producing an energy drink that, despite its marketing, has proven dangerous and even deadly. Still, Sky insists he’s a good man. Who is Dylan, really? And why has he vanished? When bodies start to pile up, Sunny must find answers quick, before she—and those she cares about—get caught in the crossfire.

An offer she can't refuse sends Sunny Randall poking around greater Boston in search of someone who may not even be worth finding. Although Sunny's repeatedly turned down millionaire Bill Welch, who wants her to look for Dylan, the son who's been missing for two weeks, she's in no position to say no to Bill's imperious wife, Lydia. So concerned is Lydia over Dylan, the Gonzo CEO responsible for an energy drink that's perked up thousands of customers, that Sunny starts her search that same day. It's no mystery why Dylan might have gone into hiding. Gonzo was being sued, and Dylan was being threatened by Rhonda Lewis over the death of her 17-year-old daughter, Daisy, who went into cardiac arrest after downing three Gonzos mixed with alcohol, and somebody had sent him more than two dozen text messages reading simply "MURDERER." Nor have things settled down at Gonzo in Dylan's absence. Product developer Trevor Reed is shot to death; Dylan's old pal Sky Farley, now Gonzo COO, is lucky to survive her own shooting; and even Sunny's receptionist, Blake James, ends up imbibing a little too much Gonzo for his own good. The case is so complicated, in fact, that solving it will require an out-of-the-blue brainwave from Sunny, and even after she starts to put the pieces together, it's clear that some of them fit together more neatly than others. Not up to Gaylin's first tour with Parker's franchise, but good enough to keep fans abuzz.COPYRIGHT(2024) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
