Maddie Mulhern is suddenly in charge. Her parents – former 80s pop duo Pineapple Mist – have left for the summer on a nostalgia tour, entrusting her to manage their struggling karaoke bar, Sing It Back. Panicking over the dodgy finances, Maddie takes a gamble: she signs up for a fly-on-the-wall reality TV series. With her faithful staff (divalicious drag queen Ruby, shy barman Simon and wannabe actress Jasmine) she’ll transform the bar into a huge success. Simple. Right?
Executive Producer Evan Bergman knows that scandal sells. It’s no coincidence that he hires cool, attractive Nick Craven as director. Evan wants drama on screen – and he’ll do anything to get it.
As the series builds to a live finale, will Maddie see the truth in a Careless Whisper? Will Nick be able to keep his Poker Face? One thing’s for sure: we all do things at karaoke that we regret . . .

A fizzy, funny, brill girls'-night-out of a book
As sparkly and feel-good as a glittery disco ball. Ella Kingsley is such a fresh and funny new voice. Pass her the mic, we want more!
A lively novel that'll cheer up the dullest day
I found myself lying in bed needing to be asleep and saying 'just one more chapter', then reading one more chapter and dutifully laying the book down and turning the light out . . . but then immediately turning it on again. I couldn't put this lovely book down
I love new girl Ella Kingsley . . . the result is a very loud hoot
Ella Kingsley's riotous novel has all the ingredients of a great karaoke night with the girls - dubious singing, laughs galore and a reminder of the fun to be had when you don't take things too seriously
