From the Publisher:
In a world obsessed with watching itself, reality is the new rock n’ roll, and Tobe Darling—show business guru and reality alchemist—has the would–be stars of tomorrow beating a path to his door. But Tobe’s life is falling apart. Tired of his clients’ desperate ambitions, and lonely after his break–up with Scarlet—the one person who understands his bizarre needs—Tobe decides to go out on his own with just one client to his name. But this new client is different from the rest. He’s at the peak of his career. He doesn’t need fixing. He’s the ultimate showbiz personality. He’s a serial killer. A dark satire on the media and celebrity—and one man’s struggle to extend the boundaries of mass entertainment.
Review:
“Kinnings has fashioned a disturbingly topical satire on celebrity culture and moral relativism.” -- Heat
