<p>''Spiky, clever, funny'' – <b>Emma Stonex, author of <i>The Lamplighters</i></b><br>''Brilliant, propulsive . . . A riot''–<b> Maddie Mortimer, author of <i>Maps of Our Spectacular Bodies</i></b><br>''A delicious gallop through 90s tabloid London'' –<b> Sam McAlister, author of <i>Scoops</i></b><br><br><b>It’s peak 90s London. Shoulder pads are out, crimped hair is in, supermodels are known by their first names, and Becky Sharp will do anything to escape her past.</b><br><br>From mingling with tabloid millionaires to trading favours and fortunes with royalty, she will stop at nothing to reach the top of the career ladder at the <i>Mercury</i> newspaper. Landing scoop after scoop, Becky ruthlessly carves a place for herself in a society determined to ignore her. These are the biggest stories and scandals of the decade, and she has something to do with every one of them.<br><br>But Becky may have more in common with the people she writes about than she thinks – what takes a lifetime to build takes only a moment to destroy . . .</p>
