People don't need to know you're a murderer. They just have to think you could be....
June 1980. Seventeen-year-old Kelly Lund is jailed for killing Hollywood film director John McFadden. Thirty years later Kelly is a free woman. Yet speculation still swirls over what really happened that night. And when her father-in-law and close friend of McFadden is found dead - shot through the head at point-blank range - there can be only one suspect.
This time Kelly has some high-profile friends who believe she's innocent of both crimes. But is she?

Terrific
I started off thinking that the mystery in this novel was way too predictable, even if it was an enjoyable read. However, in the final quarter of the book, everything starts to spin. By the end, you'll need a scorecard to keep track of the primary characters and their misdeeds. Excellent book by an excellent writer.
Murder - Secrets - Revenge
Alyson Gaylin has created a winner. What Remains of the Day is a fast
paced story revolving around murders committed thirty years apart.
WeÂre taken behind the scenes to see the seamier side of Hollywood royalty.
is fun, absorbing and intricate. Each of Alyson's characters seem to carry
more secrets than Edward Snowdon's thumb drive.
Kelly, the flawed heroine, is the best. She kept me riveted and pulling for her the entire ride.
I highly recommend it.
Three Stars
Good story. Well written. Silly , over complicated ending that spoils the book.
A truly amazing book!
I became a fan of Alison Gaylin with the Brenna Spector trilogy. Her books just get better and better. What Remains of Me is a very complicated, emotional mystery. Make sure you have time to devote to this book - you will NOT want to put it down!
What a tangled web we weave
What Remains of Me by Alison Gaylin
4 stars!!!
âThe worldâs a stage, Little Miss, but very few of us get to write our own roles.â
This is one of those books where you have to have your wits about you. There is a lot to comprehend and digest, a lot of clues and information disguised cleverly in contrived sentences where the author knows exactly what she is doing, but that is the beauty of a thriller and this author definitely delivered.
Hollywood is notoriously full of influential people, holed up in their multi-million dollar houses, cavorting around with god knows who and who knows where. Where fame and fortune is paramount to social acceptance and it is definitely not what you know but who you know. Alison Gaylin portrays this perfectly as the children of the Hollywood glitterati get caught up in the parties, booze and drugs that leads to questionable decisions and actions.
This book is told through the voice of Kelly Michelle Lund, a convicted murderer that has since been released from prison. The time line flits back from past to present as the past details the events leading up to the then seventeen-year-old girl that committed the most heinous crime, the murder of famous movie director, John McFadden.
