Mira Falling - Paperback

by Maria Arena (Author)

Mira Falling wants to be a star, with her name up in lights and a horde of fans who adore her. But achieving fame and fortune can be difficult when you're stuck in a small, backwater town like Harvest Bay and have a brilliant brother who overshadows your every move. Jack Falling is the golden boy of the Bay but Mira suspects he has a darker side especially when she starts receiving messages from long-dead, infamous murderers, which appear to incite her to commit unthinkable crimes against those who stand in the way of her dream. One such person is Lily Holborn, the twin sister of Sebastian Holborn, whose wealthy family moves into the house across the street. Handsome and edgy, Mira sees in Sebastian an opportunity to escape Harvest Bay and pursue her dream of stardom. But Lily and Jack, and perhaps the whole town, have other plans for Mira.
