Have you ever wanted someone so badly that you'd do anything to be with them? Luisa has and now she's in big trouble. She's been suspended from school for single-handedly turning the Motherwell High Twilight Fete into a war zone - complete with explosions, flying bodies, mutilated teddies and burning dogs. Luisa can't understand how she lost control. Normally home runs like clockwork, and school's all right if she ignores the bullies and the incredibly annoying Danny Baldassarro. Okay, she doesn't have time to write songs anymore but you have to make sacrifices, right? A blackly funny tale of life, love and learning to let go. (Publisher's blurb)
