Fame. Money. Beauty. Sex. Love. Ari wants them all. And as the face of 1960s London, they're hers for the taking. But to find them, she may have to lose herself.

Trapped between the suffocation of English boarding school and a chaotic homelife dominated by her eccentric mother, Ari longs for a different kind of life - one lived in the glamour of London, with the pop stars and fashion icons she adores. It seems impossible until she is discovered by Bill Ramsey - the notorious bad boy photographer of the Swinging Sixties set.

Suddenly, Ari's life is transformed into a dizzying whirlwind of drugs, photoshoots, and parties, all with the famous Ramsey by her side. The young couple are the darlings of the media. But in the fickle world of fashion, nothing lasts forever - and Ari's addiction, her eating disorder and her increasingly dysfunctional relationship with Ramsey send her life spinning out of control.

How more of herself must Ari lose to keep the things she always thought she wanted?

An honest and strikingly moving exploration of what we will sacrifice for love, amid a richly-detailed setting of 1960s London's fashion scene.

Model, writer and activist, Penelope Tree is the ultimate Sixties It girl. she was discovered at the age of 13 by the photographer Diane Arbus and became an overnight sensation after an appearance at Truman Capote's Black and White Ball. A career in modelling followed - as David Bailey's muse, Penelope appeared on the cover of Vogue and travelled around the world. Still in demand as a model today - most recently appearing on the cover of Vanity Fair - Penelope is also a practicing Buddhist and charitable ambassador. She has two adult children and splits her time between Sussex and London.
