Jameson Rook and Nikki Heat are together again! The second novel of Richard Castle's Nikki Heat series. And this one is wonderful. Rook and Heat become teamed up when a high profile gossip columnist, Cassidy Towne, is found dead. Together they go through A-listers, no listers, and a few sequined outfits to get to the bottom of the case. 
 As a huge fan of the show Castle I love the novel. This one reads much better than the first and I'm sure non-fans who enjoy the genre woud love it too. As always, the banter between the characters was done wonderfully and sizzling "heat" between Rook and Heat was quite hot. The plot kept me in circles, trying to catch the killer before they did and I was always on the edge of my seat, dying to know what happened next. 
 The few inside jokes were also excellent. I'd love to know who the ghostwriter is, but at the same time I also wouldn't.
