ABOUT THE BOOK
High school senior and budding filmmaker Eric has a lot on his plate. So when a handsome transfer student and wannabe actor transfers to his class, he’s exactly the kind of distraction Eric doesn’t need – or is he? Could Julien in fact be his muse? Even his first boyfriend? What will Eric’s girlfriend Mary make of that? And what will both of them think when they discover Eric’s secret career as a high end escort? Not to mention the dangerous and strangely attractive housebreaker he’s holding captive downstairs?
Like Christian Baines’ first novel The Beast Without, Puppet Boy digs into Sydney’s dark side, this time by way of a manic throwback to the pansexual stories of Bret Easton Ellis and Gregg Araki.
Driven by bold dreams and rushing hormones, Eric, Julien, and Mary are prepared to go to extraordinary lengths when they see something they want – including each other, as the pieces come together on their twisted path to fame.
