Laura McNaughton's life is almost perfect. She's young, she's sexy and she has a fabulous job on a glossy magazine, which involves interviewing celebrities (and air-brushing their personalities). But Laura wants more, and when she is offered a job presenting a trendy Friday night television show she can't resist the opportunity to experience fame firsthand.

Putting her puritanical Scottish upbringing, her intellectual boyfriend and her hippy best friend behind her, she soon hooks up with world-famous actress Lucy Lloyd and gorgeous, infamous rock god Ricky Jones, who introduce her to a hedonistic world of partying where appearance is everything and nothing really matters but sex, drugs and rock 'n' roll. But as the stories about her private life become front page news, Laura begins to distrust those closest to her, and her life starts to spiral dangerously out of control.
