In the summer that claimed the lives of Elvis and Marc Bolan, a new star is born - and this is his story. A tale of fate, loss and rock 'n' roll, 'Diamond Star Halo' shows what happens when a family and a farm become the breeding ground for fame.

It's Easter 1955 and as Lilia scrapes the ice from the inside of the windows, and the rust from the locks, but there are pasts that lurk with the moths in the folds of the drapes at Sugar Hall that she cannot reach. Moldering in the English border countryside the red gardens of Sugar Hall hold a secret, and as Britain waits for its last hanging, Lilia and her children must confront a history that has been buried but not forgotten. Based on the stories of the Black Boy that surround Littledean Hall in the Forest of Dean, this is a superbly chilling ghost story.
