Consequences: Secrets, Lies and Videotape

Consequences

by Laurie Depp

Dan has escaped an oppressive family background for a job as a runner for a hip London studio. He’s basically a glorified gopher, ordered around and shouted at, but he’s loving life in the center of London. This is where it all happens! Dan’s on a mission to win over Katrina, a precocious, game-playing young model, but his crappy apartment and lack of cash do not bode well for a girl who clearly wants nothing less than champagne, beautiful people, and swank parties in her life. So when Dan is entrusted with the company credit card, he can’t see why the odd dinner or champagne banquet for his conquest will do any harm. But one thing leads to another and before he knows it, Dan is up to his eyes in fraud. But he doesn’t know how to stop. Then, when things finally come to a head, Dan sees a chance to take the last fragment of control in a messed-up situation. It means throwing away his dreams, but it’s a chance to tell his story, and speak to the world through his camera, for the very first time.

About the author

Laurie Depp was born and brought up in the heart of the city in London, growing up amongst a varied mix of people - from market traders to city traders - and with nightlife to die for. She has been gathering material for her writing since her early teens.

It's rumored that Laurie is a distant cousin of that other famous Depp, Johnny, though Laurie will only say 'no comment' when asked.

Consequences is Laurie's first published sequence of books for the teen market, and though she is often reclusive and prone to agoraphobia, she is occasionally spotted dining around her 'manor', wearing dark glasses and a cute blonde wig.
