This good girl is naked on the internet...

By day, Frankie lives an ordinary life: doting daughter, supportive sister, adoring aunt and (mostly) capable colleague. The only trouble is that she also feels invisible.

So by night, Frankie creates her alter ego, uploading risque photos to a small community of online fans. She becomes sexy, confident and, most importantly, anonymous.

That is, until Frankie's two worlds collide and she finds herself thrust into the limelight, along with her secret.

Overnight, she becomes both a feminist icon and a target; wanted and worthless; powerful and petrified. Suddenly all eyes are on her.

...but is she ready to bare it all?

Limelight is a funny, touching and provocative tale of sisterhood, sexuality and self-esteem. What would you gain - and lose - by being yourself, instead of who everyone wants you to be?

Daisy Buchanan is an award-winning journalist, author and broadcaster. Her books include the novels Insatiable (longlisted for the CWIP prize), Careering (as heard on BBC Sounds) and Limelight, and the non-fiction titles How to Be a Grown Up and The Sisterhood. She hosts the Daisy Is... podcast series, and the chart-topping podcast You're Booked, where she interviews legendary writers from all over the world about how their reading habits shape their work. You can also hear her on beloved podcasts including Comfort Blanket, Cuddle Club and Crushed. Daisy has appeared on a number of TV and radio shows including Woman's Hour, The Today Programme, Soul Music, A Good Read, This Morning and Good Morning Britain. She is a TEDx speaker and has guest presented the Booker Prize for BBC News.
