A young actress under pressure

Joss Byrd’s fame meets the less glamorous demands of making an independent film in *The Locals*. The story places her performance ambitions alongside pressures from her mother, complicated feelings about a fellow cast member, and a career-threatening secret. When the director pushes her beyond what she is ready to give, the conflict turns on the difference between delivering a role and holding on to her own boundaries. The film-set premise brings together questions of performance, family expectations, privacy, and self-determination.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fiction about acting and film production
  • Readers who enjoy stories about family expectations and self-discovery
  • Readers interested in a young performer balancing public success with private pressures

Book overview

No one cares how you get the shot, as long as you get it.

Hollywood critics agree. Joss Byrd is "fiercely emotional," a young actress with "complete conviction," and a "powerhouse."

Joss Byrd is America's most celebrated young actress, but on the set of her latest project, a gritty indie film called The Locals, Joss's life is far from glamorous. While struggling with her mother's expectations, a crush on her movie brother, and a secret that could end her career, Joss must pull off a performance worthy of a star. When her renowned, charismatic director demands more than she is ready to deliver, Joss must go off-script to stay true to herself.
