Description
Kevin Emerson's Exile trilogy combines the swoon-worthy romance of a Susane Colasanti novel with the rock 'n' roll of Eleanor & Park. Packed with mystery and music, Kevin Emerson's final volume in the Exile series is the pitch-perfect ending to Summer's journey of self-discovery and love and an ode to music fans everywhere. Catherine Summer Carlson has hit rock bottom. Her band, Dangerheart, is falling apart, and finding the last of the lost songs now seems impossible. Can the band pull together to outwit Candy Shell Records, stay one step ahead of the police, and find a way to get to London to unlock the Eli White mystery before it's too late Summer knows that escaping to London would be the riskiest thing she's ever done, but she also knows that this might be her and Dangerheart's last chance of becoming the band they've always dreamed of being-and her last shot at figuring out what her heart really wants.
