Mark Watson doesn't take much notice of the news when the head of Berkeley Square Cosmetics is gruesomely attacked in London. Mark has just been wooed to LA to be groomed as the new singing partner to the rock star, Isis. Still not totally believing his good luck he allows himself to be 'made over' - new wardrobe, new hair style, new name - until he's not too sure who he really is. Even when he learns that he and Isis have a multi-million dollar endorsement deal with Berkeley Square, Mark doesn't make the connection between the violence in London and his new role. Then someone targets them in a bomb attack and Mark wakes up with a jolt.

Unable to fathom Isis's over-hysterical reaction, Mark determines not only to survive with his life and his career intact, but also to discover who the real Isis is and why she should be so vulnerable to threats. It's a path which leads him into chilling danger and which makes him wish he'd never entertained an ambition to be famous.
