Taking on the themes of reality TV, the blogosphere, tabloid
journalism, and sexuality, this darkly humorous modern novel is a
disturbing tale of conspiracy, red carpets, paranoia, and daytime
television, with a bitter take on the modern-media cult of
celebrity. Ed Raynes is the showbiz correspondent for Britain's
most popular daily tabloid, "The Voice," read by more than 20
million people, but his world begins to crumble in the sweltering
summer of 2010, with the Olympic-village construction site on his
doorstep and a shocking secret known only to himself, a television
executive, and the winner of the country's highest-rated reality
show. He becomes a recluse, and television and the internet are his
only connection to the world outside. In an unending assault of
increasingly bizarre advertisements and reality TV shows, the
showbiz gossip and the bitchy, hedonistic world of the newsroom
soon transform Ed's existence into a nightmarish reworking of
"Heart of Darkness," played out in the concrete and glass jungle of
Canary Wharf.
