Laura Cassidy is going all the way. Hollywood. Starry lights. The Walk of Fame. It s her destiny. At least, that s what her movie-obsessed father used to tell her. That was always the plan.

Sure, it s been a bit slow-going, but the stars have finally aligned. The long-awaited new theatre is about to open, and their first production calls for a particularly fiery female lead. This part has Laura s name on it.

There s her meddlesome older sister to get past – freshly returned from saving the world. Her occasional lover and stand-in leading man seems to think it s all a waste of time. And probably best not to mention the audition to her mother, especially after what happened last time . . . Laura just has to stay one step ahead of them all.

Channelling the era of Hollywood s silver screen and told in a voice that blends devil humour, quiet mayhem, and a singled-minded optimism that might just lead to disaster, Laura Cassidy s Walk of Fame tells the story of a troubled soul desperate to find her place in life.
