YA
After Jules's parents separate, the British schoolgirl is shocked that her father will no longer see or speak with her. Dad has discovered that Jules is not his biological child and has filed a lawsuit against his wife that becomes a national sensation. The novel explores a provocative family situation, though most of the focus is on the characters' predictable reactions to living in the glare of the media spotlight.
