Thirty years after his death, glam rock star Damon Brent is back, and he wants the mystery of his murder unravelled. Ellis Ross, the daughter of Damon's biggest fan, isn't keen on getting involved. But, as she quickly discovers, when you're being haunted by a man wearing more eyeliner than you are, it's hard to say no.
As the unlikely sleuth delves into years of secrets, grudges, and broken dreams, Ellis finds almost everyone from Damon’s past has something to hide... and as she starts to close in on the truth, Ellis realises she may be risking much more than just her sanity.

"But something bad always happens to me. I have such a bad feeling about all this and my gut never lies to me," her voice cracks at the end. "It's life and death. Nothing ever good comes out of that." A lone tear slides down her cheek and she shuts both her eyes tightly, her palms squeezing the fuck out of her thighs. I quickly grab one of them so she can stop hurting herself and put pressure on my palm instead. "I need you to stop crying and go rest now. I think that would be best for you." "But..." "No buts.
