The Devil You Know by P. J. Tracy

Darkness is nothing new to LAPD Detective Margaret Nolan, but in P.J.
Tracy's The Devil You Know, even she isn't prepared for the scandalous
deception of deadly proportions that shakes the very foundation of
Hollywood and its untouchables. . . and leaves her entangled in its
rotten core.
Los Angeles has many faces: the real LA where regular people live and work,

suicide, or a murder, and things get murkier as the investigation expands to
his luminary friends and colleagues. Meanwhile, Hobbes's agent is dealing
with damage control, his psychotic boss, and a woman he's scorned.
