From award-winning author Benjamin Dean comes a deliciously dark
and addictive YA thriller following the lives of Gen Z’s rich and
famous through the lens of an undercover teen journalist. Perfect
for fans of A Good Girl's Guide to Murder and One of Us is
Lying. 'This [book] has "Netflix adaptation" written all
over it.' The Bookseller  London-born Abel has landed the
role of a lifetime for an upcoming blockbuster. On the face of it
he’s Hollywood’s latest teen star, but below the surface he’s
an undercover journalist on a mission to expose the ‘squeaky
clean’ entertainment industry and the part they played in his
brother’s ‘accidental’ death. As Abel steps into the
spotlight alongside fellow actors Lucky, Ryan and Ella, he soon
discovers that beneath the glittering surface of fame and riches
lies a darker world of secrecy, scandal and murder. Nobody is who
they seem when the cameras are off, and everybody has something to
hide. But who’s next in line to die famous? Â
Drawing on his previous career as a celebrity journalist, Benjamin
Dean examines the dark underbelly of showbiz, leaving no stone
unturned. PRAISE FOR BENJAMIN DEAN’S THE KING IS DEAD:

author of Clean ‘All hail this exquisitely twisty, delightfully
queer mystery.’ Chelsea Pitcher, author of This Lie Will
Kill You ‘A compelling thriller that stays with you long after

Dean is YA royalty.’ Femi Fadugba, author of The Upper
World ‘Addictive, compelling, and utterly

'My mum is up there somewhere. She's waiting -- I can feel it. I
just have to find her in time, that's all ... Because when I do,
I'll know the truth about who stole her. ' Told through the
innocent voice of a child, this is a story that celebrates the
power of hope and resilience, from the author of The Boy at the
Back of the Class. On her tenth birthday, Sophie makes a wish -- a
wish for her mum. After school that same day, Sophie and her
brother are rushed out of school and driven far, far away. So
Sophie sets out to find out the truth -- about the wish and about
what happened to her mother. And in doing so she ends up on an
adventure she never could have foreseen...one that involves a very
clever squirrel, a homeless man named Harry, the Royal Observatory
at Greenwich, and the biggest star in Hollywood... A story that
explores the subtle faces and endless impacts of domestic violence.
