From the New York Times bestselling author of Bloom and Guillotine comes a darkly seductive tale of beautiful rock stars, sinister cults, and a magical oasis where dreams come true... for a price.

With her every need accommodated, she finally has the time and space to perfect her music. Her muse? Reclusive rock star Jesper Idyll, who lives up to her every high school daydream.

When people start to disappear and Jesper's ex turns up dead and hideously mutilated, Angelina begins to suspect that something malevolent lurks behind the cult that's grown around the band...
A disturbing, decadent and wickedly compelling tale of a Hollywood dream turned nightmare, Delilah S. Dawson’s darkly delicious prose will seduce you, tie you up, and never let you go….

3.5
“I love Dawson, but this book felt rushed and the ending didn't pack a punch, like Bloom , did for me. I'm not mad that I read it, just meh.”
“Honestly this is exactly how I imagine Jared Leto's spiritual retreat. 😅”
“I don’t know if it’s because I have the flu or because this book is that weird but I have no idea what just happened? And like what was I supposed to get from that?”
“Another short Deliah S. Dawson book. I found it to be an interesting cult driven read. I was a bit disappointed by the ending that I felt was a bit rushed and lacked substance and there were still things left unanswered that I guess we were supposed to fill in for ourselves?”
