This daughter of a rock star has it all --- until murder crashes her world.
The exciting and suspenseful Rayne Tour series features 16-year-old Shaley O’Connor, on tour with her mother’s popular band. Shaley lives in a whirlwind of backstage secrets, hotels and limos. With beauty and fame of her own, Shaley wants for nothing…except the one thing she can’t have.
During a concert, Shaley stumbles upon the body of a friend backstage. Is Tom Hutchens’s death connected to her?
Frightening messages arrive. Paparazzi stalk Shaley. Her private nightmare is displayed for all to see. Where is God at a time like this?
As the clock runs out, Shaley must find Tom’s killer --- before he strikes again.
