Dead and Deceived — Jennifer Rebecca

You ever hear the phrase embrace the suck? Trent once told me that it's an old Army saying that means make the best out of a bad situation-which is how I find myself clinking a metal can against jailhouse bars and wondering if Elvis Presley had to put up with scratchy wool blankets when he sang Jailhouse Rock. I'm accused of killing someone, but that can't be because I was busy nursing my granny back to health. With the Dangerous Dames scattered far and wide and Trent refusing to answer my calls, what am I to do other than to shout Attica and hope for the best. I need to find the real killer and fast.My name is Shelby Whitmore and before my inconvenient incarceration I was a reporter for the San Diego Metro News but now it looks like I'm going up the river for murder one. Too bad I didn't do it . . .
