What you need to know before your trail
Luci LaBang is a star: for decades this flamboyant drag artist has cast a spell over screen and stage. Now she’s the leading lady in a smash hit pantomime.
When Luci’s co-star meets with a mysterious accident, a new ingenue shimmers onto the scene, and Luci is immediately smitten with the fantastically beautiful Luda and her sinister charm.
Luda begs Luci to share the secrets of her stardom and to reveal the hidden tricks of her trade. For Luci LaBang is a mistress of the Glamour, an arcane discipline that draws on sex, drugs, and the occult for its trancelike, transformative effects.
But as Luci tutors her young protégée, their fellow actors and crew members begin meeting with untimely ends. Now Luci wonders if Luda has mastered the Glamour all too well.

Travel Guide
Glasgow
Well is it Glasgow? This is a very alternative Glasgow that is actually called GASGLOW in the book. You get the sense from that how alternative this book.
There are locations in the novel but they are theatres and places that only exist in this universe. It’s actually the characters that are much more important and they are colourful to say the least!
Wrap your feather boa around your neck, get that sparkly outfit on and head on down to GASGLOW!
