Diamond Star Halo
Tiffany Murray
Halo Llewelyn's prayers begin 'Dear God and Otis Redding' because she grows up on Rockfarm, a rural recording studio where tractors and Stratocasters vie for supremacy. One midsummer night an American band called Tequila arrives in a beautiful silver bus, and when they and that summer are gone, they leave behind an equally beautiful baby boy, Fred.
Fred is everybody's favourite, a golden child, but a child with the man he wants to become already in his eyes. By seventeen his ambition has propelled him out into the world and into the stardom that was always his destiny. Up on stage, being screamed at by hundreds of teenage girls, Fred will always turn his spotlight on Halo in the crowd.
That's the problem with falling in love with your charismatic almost- brother - it can never be a secret. In the end, the whole world has to know.
