Amid frenzied speculation by the tabloids and online ’detectives’, Cassie finds herself drawn dangerously deep into Bronte’s personal life - her warring parents, her druggie boyfriend, and the sharks that cruise the music biz.

To make amends now and avoid Bronte’s fate, Cassie must work out who to trust - and who to fear...
