About the book

'A whip-smart and ingenious thriller that homes in on our toxic addiction to celebrity' Lesley Kara, bestselling author of THE RUMOUR

Melanie Lange has disappeared.

Her father, Sir Peter Lange, says she is a danger to herself and has been admitted to a private mental health clinic.

Her ex-husband, Finn, and best friend, Nell, say she has been kidnapped.

The media will say whichever gets them the most views.

But whose side are you on?

#HelpPeter

Told via interviews, transcripts and diary entries, The Ugly Truth is a shocking and addictive thriller about fame, power and the truth behind the headlines.

'#FreeBritney meets The Appeal in this addictively unique thriller. Get ready to be utterly hooked' Jack Jordan, author of Do No Harm

'A startling thriller with a sharp edge. Fast and compelling, it leaves you gasping for breath'
Daily Mail

'Totally fresh and very clever. It made me reassess my own views and prejudices about people in the public eye' Emily Edwards, author of The Herd
