Synopsis
By the author of Dare Me and The End of Everything In October 1931, a station agent found two large trunks abandoned in Los Angeless Southern Pacific Station. What he found inside ignited one of the most scandalous tabloid sensations of the decade. Inspired by this notorious true crime, Edgar-winning author Megan Abbotts novel Bury Me Deep is the story of Marion Seeley, a young woman abandoned in Phoenix by her doctor husband. At the medical clinic where she finds a job, Marion becomes fast friends with Louise, a vivacious nurse, and her roommate, Ginny, a tubercular blonde. Before long, the demure Marion is swept up in the exuberant life of the girls, who supplement their scant income by entertaining the towns most powerful men with wild parties. At one of these events, Marion meetsand falls hard forthe charming Joe Lanigan, a local rogue and politician on the rise, whose ties to all three women bring events to a dangerous collision. A story born of Jazz Age decadence and Depression-era desperation, Bury Me Deep with its hothouse of jealousy, illicit sex and shifting loyaltiesis a timeless portrait of the dark side of desire and the glimmer of redemption.
