Octavia Frost is no stranger to life’s twists of fate.

She has mourned a husband and a daughter.

She has watched her son become a rock star, following his progress through gossip magazines: they have not spoken in four years.

And in her own, less spectacular way, she has built a name for herself as a writer.

But the news she receives today will make her rethink everything. And though the situation seems bleak, it could give her a chance to redeem the mistakes she’s made in the past. She may still have time to bring her own story to a different ending.

To win one of the ten copies that are up for grabs, answer the following question: What news story led Carolyn Parkhurst to write The Nobodies Album?
