Pg. 69: Sharon Potts's "Someone’s Watching"

This weekend's feature at the Page 69 Test: Someone’s Watching by Sharon Potts.

About the book, from the publisher:
Twenty-something Robbie Ivy wants to keep her life as simple and commitment-free as possible. Who needs a high-pressure career, a relationship, or a family anyway? But Robbie’s life gets inextricably complicated when her estranged father shows up with a shocking revelation about two teenage girls who disappeared in South Beach. One of the missing girls is Robbie’s sister Kate—a sister Robbie never knew existed.

Unwilling to reestablish family ties, Robbie is hesitant to get involved—until the body of her sister’s friend washes up in Indian Creek. Desperate to find her missing sister, Robbie immerses herself in the unfamiliar world to which Kate may have fallen prey: the sexy, sizzling South Beach club scene. Swept up in a corrupt, destructive society, Robbie searches for a cold-blooded killer in the hottest South Beach hotspots. But in this see-and-be-seen world, everyone is dressed to kill, people are dying for a chance to get beyond the velvet rope ... and someone is watching. Robbie may have to choose between saving her sister—and saving herself.
