Picador announces a captivating debut about the lure of the 1930s Hollywood, in all its dangerous glamour. When the most famous producer in Hollywood plucks Elsa Emerson out at a party and renames her Laura Lamont, a new star of the silverscreen is born. Elsa has eloped from her beloved home and at seventeen, is heavily pregnant. But all she has ever wanted is to be an actress, and she leaps into the studios arms. Step by step -- new figure, new hair, new wardrobe, new name -- she leaves her old life behind. The studio takes care of everything. She even falls in love with the producer. But there has been tragedy in Elsas life, and as ghosts from the past come to haunt her, and as medication takes the place of care, she finds her star has burned brightly but all too briefly A scintillating glimpse into the shadows around the spotlights, Emma Straubs dramatic debut is Hollywood uncut, asking how many people can we be in a lifetime? And at what cost?
