Publisher's Synopsis

From Printz Honor winning author Lily Anderson comes a young adult horror about seventeen-year-old Faye and her friends who try to survive the summer when their theater camp turns into a real-life horror show.

This summer's production is to die for.

The Ghostlight Youth Theater Camp isn't the best program in the world, but to Faye, it's home. Every summer since junior high, Faye and her friends have come together for a month-long musical intensive. For her last year before graduation, Faye's finally ready to take center stage as her true Afro-Latina self and break out of her good-girl princess roles.

But as Faye steps into her spotlight, complications arise. Suddenly, she's competing with her BFF for lead roles, and distracted by the attentions of the new camp hottie.

Even when the drama turns deadly, Faye remains determined to make this the best production the Ghostlight has ever seen. It must be a coincidence that the stagehands keep disappearing and having gruesome accidents, right? But dark secrets are hiding behind the scenes, and opening night might turn out to be a bloodbath. Lights, curtains...murder!
