Bright Lights Shining/Fool's Gold

Book 3: Bright lights shning

After a devastating row with her violent father, Janey is homeless. But when old Mrs Wicks invites her in and treats her faintness with several large glasses of vintage port, Janey remembers that Mike, her brother, is appearing with his band, Night Mission, at an important rock festival, and decides to go there to borrow some money.

She arrives at the hotel in the middle of a crazy press reception, but the next morning when she wakes up in Dave's hotel bedroom, she is horrified to find that she has caused a massive scandal, and set off a chain of events, which leaves Night Mission in crisis, just before they are due to appear at the biggest and most important concert of their careers. Can they deal with this disaster and survive?

Book 4: Fool's gold

Night Mission have climbed to success and is touring the US. But while Mike Adams, and Cliff Hawkins revel in acclaim, Ronnie Craig is finding the experience of a successful touring rock a nightmare. Dave Hampton, too, has his problems. His relationship with Janey Adams, is not going well. Janey wants some fun and freedom before she settles down. Her singing career has taken off in a big way, and Dave is obsessively jealous of her friendship with another musician, Jay Bird.

When Ronnie hears bad news from home he is desperate. He has lost Janey to Dave and now there seems to be no point in the search for fame and success, he has nobody to share them with him. The drugs he is taking are making him ill.

Will an enforced rest, a change of scene and a new girl friend help him turn his life around? Or have Dev and Chris thrown a spanner in the works?
