​
A Haunted Hearts series book.
​
As Spain’s fledgling democracy enters the 80s, young artists have transformed Madrid into a city where anything is possible, where outcasts, freaks and creative weirdos of every type let their imaginations run free amid beautiful, hedonistic chaos.
All Alex wants is to create one unforgettable show that earns the respect and admiration of his fellow outcasts. When Jago, a handsome and kind, yet secretive young man pulls him from harm’s way during a protest, a night of tenderness opens the door to new and thrilling talents. His new friend is also determined to see him succeed... at any price.
Caught between suspicion, enthrallment and desire, Alex and his friends dance to the tune of poets and devils. Will it lead them to an opening night triumph? Or is Alex writing the script for a tragedy in the pursuit of fame and love?
