Connie Benson is a 26-year-old trombone player whose reckless online persona is taking over her life - and trashing it. She's buried under a mountain of personal debt, her professional reputation is falling apart and her relationship with her mother is hanging by a thread. When she snatches the last open spot in a sponsored music contest, Connie has one final opportunity to turn her life around. Six young jazz musicians with strong social media profiles travel across Europe, battling on stage and online for a chance to grab a lucrative recording contract. But only one performer can win... With breathless momentum and intoxicating prose, Cutting Contest marks the exhilarating arrival of a buoyant and distinctive literary voice. --
