About

Take your final bow. The Ghostlight Youth Theater Camp isn’t the best program in the world, but to Faye, it’s home. Every summer since junior high, Faye and her friends have come together for a month-long musical-theater intensive. With this being her last year before graduation, Faye is ready to take center stage as her true Afro-Latina self and break out of her “good-girl princess” roles.

Suddenly, complications arise: she’s competing with her best friend for lead roles, and distracted by the attentions of the new camp hottie. Even when the drama turns deadly — as stagehands go missing and accidents pile up — Faye remains determined to make this the best production the Ghostlight has ever seen. It must be a coincidence that the stagehands keep disappearing, right? But dark secrets are hidden behind the scenes… and opening night might turn out to be a bloodbath.

“A witty summer camp murder mystery where drama unfolds both on and off the stage … In this love letter to theater life, the joy and passion derived from the art form shine through brightly.” — Kirkus Reviews

“Anderson effectively captures the over-the-top atmosphere of theater camp, resulting in plenty of dark humor.” — Publishers Weekly
