Description:

California, 2011: Nicole Forbes lives a quiet life in the small seaside town of Coronado with her husband and daughter. She is not expecting a writer to knock on her door asking for her personal insight into the downfall of the biggest British band of the 1980s—unveiling the threads of a life she left behind years ago. The same day, her daughter goes missing and the school claims her aunt picked her up . . . but she doesn’t have an aunt. Convinced of a link between the two, Nicole is forced to revisit long-abandoned memories from her past to protect everything she now holds dear.

London, 1986: Sixteen-year-old Cassie is obsessed with Secret Oktober, the hottest band of the moment. Harboring an intense crush on the leading man, Ben Edwards, she will do anything she can to capture his attention among the throngs of groupies at the band’s scandalous backstage parties. But when Ben discovers her older sister Nicole singing at a local bar one night, he can’t help but feel drawn to her, setting in motion a collision course that could tear their family apart.

Infused with the sounds of the 80s, this thrilling novel from the inimitable Sandie Jones explores the chaos that the frenzy of fandom can provoke.

Adele’s Review:

I Would Die For You is a unique novel, told in both present day and the 1980’s by rival sisters. The 1980’s is legendary for its style and music, which attracted me to the book. In my humble opinion, the 80’s were among the best of times, and I enjoyed revisiting the decade in this thriller. Teen music fans can become obsessive about their idols, and that obsession is at the heart of this well-written story. Sixteen-year-old Cassie becomes a frenzied fan of the front man for a popular band, but when he notices her older sister, Nicole, their futures are altered forever. Mystery and thriller fans who remember 80’s music might also enjoy this novel.
