Description

Sara Carter wants to be famous. Fame is her obsession. So when legendary rock star Jonathon Heat offers her star training and the cosmetic surgery she thinks she wants, Sara can't believe her dream will come true. But Jonathon Heat doesn't want Sara's talent. Jonathon Heat wants Sara's face. Melvin Burgess is on top form with this chilling, original and topical psychological thriller.

Reviews

Genuinely chilling ... a smart satire for our image-obsessed culture Telegraph Sara's Face is quite unlike anything else I have read this year Independent Ingenious and chilling ... the narrative gallop will have readers sitting up half the night to finish it Observer Remarkable ... startling Publishing News Thrilling ... it stays with you Guardian
