Joe Jarrett thought he'd escaped his past. Once the charismatic frontman of one of the world's biggest rock bands, he now lives a quiet life by the sea, far from the fame and scandal that almost destroyed him.
But when his son brings home a new girlfriend, an explosive exposé thrusts Joe's former band back into the spotlight, reviving allegations of rape, murder and a young girl left to die on tour.
Then the letters begin.
As long-buried secrets resurface, Joe is forced to confront a night he's spent years trying to forget. Because someone knows the truth - and they're determined to make him face it.
Previously published as Venus Was Her Name.
