'Spooky, atmospheric, brilliant... I think I love it the best out
of all Laura's books. Watch out for it - but beware...' Bridget
Collins, author of number one bestseller, The Binding 'Deliciously
creepy, riveting and full of heart with compelling characters and
brilliant twists. The theatrical setting and use of the tragedies
on stage that are woven expertly into the unfolding story is
glitteringly dark and mesmerising' Jennifer Saint, Sunday Times
bestselling author of Ariadne and Elektra Be careful what you wish
for... it may just come true. At The Mercury Theatre in London's
West End, rumours are circulating of a curse. It is said that the
lead actress Lilith has made a pact with Melpomene, the tragic muse
of Greek mythology, to become the greatest actress to ever grace
the stage. Suspicious of Lilith, the jealous wife of the theatre
owner sends dresser Jenny to spy on her, and desperate for the
money to help her family, Jenny agrees. What Jenny finds is a woman
as astonishing in her performance as she is provocative in nature.
On stage, it's as though Lilith is possessed by the characters she
plays, yet off stage she is as tragic as the Muse who inspires her,
and Jenny, sorry for her, befriends the troubled actress. But when
strange events begin to take place around the theatre, Jenny
wonders if the rumours are true, and fears that when the Muse comes
calling for payment, the cost will be too high. 'Gloriously gothic'
Erin Kelly 'Immersive' Beth Underdown 'Fantastic' Rebecca Netley
'Darkly seductive and artfully realised' Susan Stokes-Chapman LAURA
