A teenage paparazzo makes a dangerous discovery in this timely look at celebrity &;that is likely to be snapped up and make a lasting impression&; (School Library Journal).

All Jamie Gordon wants to do is to take pictures of celebrities...and maybe to become famous herself. She&;s only fourteen, but already her work is sought after by fanzines and websites, and she&;s invited to all the best parties. And now she has the chance of a lifetime: She has been invited to spend a week with Willow Twine, taking pictures of the teen superstar&;s new chaste life. But when Jamie gets her hands on some sensational shots of Willow, she&;s suddenly in over her head. The pictures could make her career&;and destroy Willow&;s. It seems like everyone&;s eager to get their hands on the photos, and Jamie has to decide what she really wants...and what she&;s willing to pay to get it.

Industry Reviews

"Strasser rips his story from the headlines as he circles in on how fame elevates, decimates, and utterly alters reality for anyone spinning in its orbit...readers will be caught up in both the glamour and the dark underbelly of fame."--"Booklist" "The author, best known for grittier novels, shows impressive range here...this book is likely to be snapped up and make a lasting impression on readers.""-School Library Journal" "Strasser has written a novel that exposes the magical lure of celebrity...The message is clear, but in a thoughtful rather than preachy way...This is a good read that is taken from today's celebrity headlines; it should surely hook teens looking for a good story that they can identify with."--"Library Media Connection",
