She wanted answers. They wanted her silence. But in their world, everyone has a price.
Three years ago, Willow Vance older sister vanished from her London flat without a trace, leaving behind an empty room, a closed police file, and a trail of unanswered questions. Since that night, Willow has lived like a ghost, hiding inside oversized jumpers and the quiet shadows of a damp library, drowning in a grief she cannot escape.
Until the night her chaotic best friend drags her backstage into the inner sanctum of PRETENCE.
To the world, PRETENCE is a global rock phenomenon-five untouchable, leather-clad gods who sell out stadiums within seconds and rule the music industry with reckless, bad-boy charm. But behind the flashing paparazzi cameras, the screaming fans, and the multi-million-pound tours lies a flawless mask. The band is a brilliant front for a ruthless international crime syndicate controlling the very streets they walk on.
When Willow accidentally wanders past the wrong door, she witnesses a dark reality she was never meant to see. Trapped in a high-gloss world of substance excess, toxic power loops, and lethal secrets, she catches the attention of the band's volatile, drug-dependent frontman: Harry Styles.
