死了一個娛樂女記者之後
人人都愛桃色八卦，
虛華的表象只為掩蓋真實的腐臭！
娛樂圈潛規則：每個女孩都有身價。
但當事不關己，又有誰真的在意？
新聞若是項利器，該用來防衛自保？交換利益？
或是奮不顧身地贖罪？
八卦周刊娛樂女記者劉知君，因工作過度陷入昏睡，
錯過了同事林姵亭命喪酒店性愛毒趴前，最後傳來的求救訊息。
大家說，姵亭是用身體交換新聞、甚至金錢的虛榮妖女，
但她不信。知君想贖罪，想追蹤真相。
同事、恩師、上司，有誰能幫她一把？誰又能夠信任？
而她自己的懺悔心與正義感，又摻著多少野心？
大家都笑娛樂新聞難登大雅之堂。
知君偏不死心，想挑戰那條不可見的界線：新聞豈有高尚、低俗之分？
當她毅然起步，才發現贖罪之途竟是姵亭的舊路──假賣淫、真臥底。
正義女神與落難天使，哪一個才是她的身分？
她能否追尋到自己想要的真相？或者真相，不過是真與假的無解迷思？

What is salvation? To me, that is the central question to this book. When bad things happen to you, or those around you, what can you do to salvage it? What extent do you need to go to before you can think about moving on? And how much are you to blame for your own downfall? The characters in this book all have different answers. It’s interesting to see how all of them, who once were eager young journalists, turn out in the game of life.
A question from one of the characters in this book haunts me: if it had been a model dying, instead of a journalist, would the public care? Despite what everyone says about all lives having equal value, is there not a hidden feeling of “she was asking for it” when models, or indeed anyone, tries to use their appearance to further their careers and then suffers abuse, especially sexual abuse? And how easy is it to see the victims as Other, as an object to be scorned or pitied rather than emphasised with.
Overall, this book kept me on the edge of my seat. For dealing with such violent/abusive subject matter, it toes the line between violence-for-a-purpose and gratuitous violence quite well. Ending was a bit optimistic but my god I don’t think I could’ve taken it any other way. Recommended if you like thrillers.

文字用得蠻厲害的感覺，不是很口語，有華麗感，有時候還會華麗到不太懂（慚愧ＸＤ）。
讀記者的日常是蠻有趣的部分。
看記者如何聯合狗仔和爆料網追真相的部分很刺激，完全沒冷場的小說。
對人物角色的描述很鮮明，很容易想像是怎麼樣的人、怎麼樣的外貌，甚至能聞到各角色的氣味。
故事中的娛樂圈醜聞，呈現一種互利共生的生態感，有人需要人脈、有人需要生意、有人渴望名門權貴、有人享受權利，各取所需。
踢爆了一個醜聞，還有千千萬萬個，在想是否要學習跟這些真相和平共處？
也許要在人類社會生存，要嘛不知道一些角落發生的事，要嘛知道但習慣它。
除非真的有改變的可能和必要。
讀完整本書，對於真相是否有公諸於世的必要產生了懷疑～
這世間許多利益彼此連結，緊扣在一起的力量很團結也很大，不是一個踢爆就能改變什麼。
