Hollywood vampires : Johnny Depp, Amber Heard, and the celebrity exploitation machine / by Loudenberg, Kelly,author.; Wholey, Makiko,author.;
"Celebrity romances have always captured the public's imagination, playing out like soap operas seized upon by fans and tabloids alike. By the same token, high-profile trials can take over the mainstream media cycle, with both news pundits and the public picking over every detail to predict outcomes and cast their own judgements. Enter the union, dissolution, and hostile legal battle between Johnny Depp and Amber Heard -- where these dual obsessions collided, creating a chaotic moment of true cultural fixation. [This book] offers an inside account of one of the most controversial and consequential celebrity scandals of the Internet era. Fueled by viral clips, reaction videos, and endless online debates, the trial became more than a legal battle -- it became a public spectacle, dividing audiences worldwide"--

As news breaks of a second murder, Ruby's ex-fiance, Lee Greene, shows up on her doorstep - a Southern gentleman in need of a saviour. As lurid, intertwining investigations unfold, no one in Rosedale can be trusted, especially the twelve men and women impaneled on the jury. They may be hiding the biggest secret of all.
