Synopsis

Four talented girls from vastly different pasts share a dream of stardom: Cinnamon, the edgy actress; Ice, the phenomenal vocalist; Rose, the beautiful dancer; and Honey, the first-rate violinist. The four meet at the prestigious Senetsky School of the Performing Arts - housed in an ornate New York mansion - and become instant friends as they take off on a dazzling whirlwind of intense classes, theatre outings and celebrity-studded parties. But they soon realise this is no ordinary school. Madame Senetsky pushes the girls' studies beyond reason. She controls their social lives. And they get the strange feeling someone is watching them. But who? And why? Cinnamon, Ice, Rose and Honey set out to untangle a shadowy web of Senetsky family secrets. As they explore dark corners and hidden rooms, every creak and moan of the old mansion tells a story too frightening to repeat. A devastating story that could destroy their dreams.

From AudioFile

In the fifth of Andrews's Shooting Stars series, two actors, two musicians, a dancer, and a singer meet as new students at Senetsky's School of the Performing Arts, located in a gothic mansion in New York City. Former stage star Madame S. is a wizard at turning the merely gifted into the fabulously famous, using iron discipline. But when Honey Forman, a violinist who serves as the story's narrator, sees what she thinks is a Peeping Tom outside her window and investigates, she uncovers glamorous deceit. Laurel Lefkow's range of accents adds color to the story and raises the listener's anticipation as the voices of young innocence clash shatteringly with those of adult arrogance and ambition.
