This Careless Life

Four best friends with perfect lives. A once in a lifetime opportunity. Who can resist the call of fame and fortune? Liv, Hetty, Jez and Duffy are auditioning for a new reality TV show. Producer Cassandra has warned them the process might be tough, but they are excited and keen to get on with things, confident that they can handle anything. But when Cass produces a photo of a body, everyone realises that they may have something to hide after all... Rachel McIntyre is the author of the critically acclaimed young adult novels Me & Mr J and The Number One Rule for Girls. She was inspired by the timeless themes in J B Priestley's classic play An Inspector Calls, and wanted to make them relevant to contemporary teens, the result of which was This Careless Life.
