“Densely developed characters and an addictive plotline led to a sleepless night as I whisked through Staged at record speed. I couldn’t put it down. Rother’s years writing true crime have given her fiction a rare authenticity. Highly recommended. Such a good read!” —Kathryn Casey, author of Bone Cold
