Publisher’s Weekly raves:

McDougall (Born to Run ) delivers a propulsive, horrifying account of the sexual abuse scandal involving Mexican pop singer Gloria Trevi and her manager, Sergio Andrade, which he previously covered in 2001’s Girl Trouble . Moved to “learn more, dig deeper, and understand [the case] better” in the years after publishing that book, McDougall revisits the case with a new focus on his own reporting and an expanded scope that traces developments over the past two decades. Detailing his yearslong pursuit of Andrade and Trevi, and the fallout after Trevi was cleared of wrongdoing in 2004, McDougall constructs an appalling cautionary tale about craving fame and the mechanics of abuse. It’s riveting, though not for the faint of heart.
