The Last Diva

We've all seen the story play out a hundred times before; eighties pop sensation makes a comeback, however, the truth rarely matches the dream. Inevitably, the adored star of yesteryear - the one that graced our bedroom wall posters, the one we waited outside hotels for just to catch a mere glimpse of, or screamed our lungs out at their concerts - has committed the unforgivable sin of simply growing old.Pearl Sorelle was that star, one so blisteringly successful that, for the very best decade, she literally was pop music.By the late 1990s, after a devastating diagnosis of nodules on those golden vocal chords, combined with the worsening of her vitiligo, it looked like she had finally flown too close to the sun and had fallen to earth, along with her plummeting record sales. The diva retreated into the shadows, seeking sanctuary in her sprawling 18th century chateau in rural France.A chance meeting with the mysterious Mr Devlin offers her a way back to the limelight, however, this second bite of the fame cherry comes at a cost.The Last Diva explores the dark side of celebrity and the entertainment industry, where the battle between good and evil literally plays out on the world stage.
