Synopsis
Extreme facial surgery, an unhealthy obsession with beauty, and drama make up this compelling young adult novel by Melvin Burgess, author of SMACK and DOING IT. Seventeen-year-old Sara Carter has a disfiguring scar on her face, and longs to become a beauty. When Jonathon Heat, a Michael Jacksonesque star, offers her a room in his home and access to his private surgeon, Dr. Kaye, Sara finds herself entering a disturbing world that could ensnare her forever.

Industry Reviews
"Burgess wraps his message about vanity and celebrity-obsessed culture in a nightmarish, unforgettable story."
(02/19/2007)

"Sara's meditations on fame, identity, masks, and the true nature of beauty will take this a step further than its sensationalistic plotline might seem to allow; in Sara, Burgess has created a character that is strangely unique and yet troublingly familiar."
