Description
November 2101. Journalist Abbie Moon is a modern girl: spunky, sassy, smart - and with an eye for a cute guy. Reporting on the spectacular opening of a National Museum of Human Rights in New York, Abbie is wowed by Jack Paris, the museum's Media Liaison Officer, and embarks - with a view to bedding 'Mr Cupcake' - on research for a fictitious set of articles on the 'BGM' (Boring Gloomy Museum).
But as our self-centred heroine's interest in Jack wanes, so her fascination with the museum exhibits grows and she is drawn unwittingly into a disturbing - and increasingly perilous - web of secrecy. Who is the 'Mystery Man' who seeks to befriend her? How does he know so much about her? And what gruesome secrets lie behind the BGM's holographic Twin Towers facade?
Political thriller? Tragi-comic sci-fi romance? Lip Service is a scathing critique of the hypocrisy of governments imaginatively packaged in a wrapper which will have you chuckling all the way to its electrifying climax.
