Boom Town ebook

Welcome to Boom Town, Atlanta's most infamous Black strip club, where the air is thick with secrets and the stakes are as high as the heels. When Damaris "Charm" Willburn, a new daytime dancer, vanishes without a trace, former headline Lyriq is thrust back into a world she thought she had left behind. Charm's disappearance eerily mirrors that of Lyriq's former partner, Lucky, who also went missing under mysterious circumstances. Both women shared a dangerous connection with Thomas McIntyre, a wealthy white man with far more power than they could imagine. As Lyriq delves deeper into the mystery, she uncovers a tangled web of deceit, power, and privilege that threatens to consume her. With each revelation, the line between friend and foe blurs, and Lyriq must confront her own past to uncover the truth. But as the secrets of Boom Town unravel, Lyriq faces a harrowing question: can she solve the mystery without losing everything she holds dear? Boom Town is a masterful blend of suspense and social commentary exploring themes of racial and sexual power dynamics, the invisibility of Black women, and the societal judgements placed on professions deemed "unsavory." In this electrifying thriller, New York Times bestselling author Nic Stone takes you on a heart-pounding journey through Atlanta's dark underbelly.
