A search through Atlanta’s hidden networks

When two dancers from Boom Town disappear, former headliner Michah “Lyriq” Johanssen connects the cases and begins searching for both women. The investigation moves through Atlanta’s underworld and exposes ties among wealth, privilege, power, and deception, while Lyriq weighs the danger of continuing. The missing women also bring the question of whose disappearances attract attention—and whose are overlooked—into the thriller’s central conflict.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in suspense centered on missing-person investigations.
  • Readers drawn to stories set in Atlanta’s underworld and focused on dancers’ lives.
  • Readers interested in themes of power, privilege, and unequal attention to missing women.

Book overview

Gillian Flynn's Gone Girl meets P-Valley in Nic Stone's adult thriller debut about two missing erotic dancers from Atlanta's most notorious gentlemen's club and the woman committed to finding them.

When Damaris "Charm" Wilburn, a new daytime dancer, is missing for her shift at Boom Town, former headliner Michah "Lyriq" Johanssen suspects something more than a "no call, no show." As Lyriq's former headline partner and lover--Felice "Lucky" Carothers--also vanished under similar circumstances, Lyriq decides she's going to find them.

Delving deeper into Charm and Lucky's disappearances, Lyriq uncovers a tangled web of deceit, wealth, privilege, and power. The line between friend and foe blurs, forcing Lyriq to confront the question: is finding these women worth the threat to her own life?

A tantalizing thriller that takes you on a heart-pounding and page turning journey through the peaks and valleys of Atlanta's underworld, Boom Town grapples with a troubling reality: only some missing women draw attention while others are too easily forgotten.
