When Isabelle Donovan doesn't show up for work one morning, it calls for great concern. Isabelle has a near perfect attendance record and wouldn't dare miss a day without giving notice. The police begin investigating right away and focus on her husband, Scott Donovan, who she separated from six months prior. Scott, who claims to know nothing about his wife's disappearance, is caught in a lie when Isabelle's best friend comes forward with new information. A year earlier, another young woman mysteriously vanished under similar circumstances to Isabelle and was never seen or heard from again. Her body was never found, but police were convinced it was the husband, though they could never prove it. Now, as the search for Isabelle continues, questions begin to surface. Why did her marriage really end? Is Scott telling the truth? And most notably, could there be a correlation to the other disappearance? But if there is, then Scott must be innocent. ... Or perhaps not. Because in this story, nobody is innocent.

How far will teen girls go for approval from their peers? Pretty far, it turns out. When pretty, smart Sara Long is found bludgeoned to death, it's easy to blame the man with the bat. But when Georgia Davis -- former cop and newly-minted PI -- is hired to look into the incident at the behest of the accused's sister, what she finds hints at a much different, much darker answer. It seems the privileged, affluent schoolgirls on Chicago's North Shore have learned just how much their innocence is worth to hot-under-the-collar businessmen. But while these girls can pay for their newly gotten Prada pricetags, they don't realize that their new business venture may end up costing them more than they can afford. I'll post chapters one at a time, but if you just HAVE to find out what happens before they're all up, here's where you can buy the ebook (It's also available in paperback and audio, btw): http://amzn.com/B001UE8J4Y https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/easy-innocence/id586071761?mt=11 http://store.kobobooks.com/en-US/ebook/easy-innocence
