Exposure
By Mal Peet
The third Paul Faustino novel by multi-award-winning Mal Peet. A massive soccer star has it all, but someone is plotting his downfall...
Revered as a national hero, married to the desirable Desmerelda, cherished by the media, soccer star, Otello, has it all. But a sensational club transfer sparks a media frenzy, and when he is wrongly implicated in a scandal, the footballer’s life turns into a tragic spiral of destruction. South America’s top sports journalist, Paul Faustino, witnesses the power of the media in making and breaking people's lives.
- Mal Peet’s first Paul Faustino novel, "Keeper", was winner of the 2004 Branford Boase Award and the 2004 Bronze Nestle Smarties Book Award.
- A dramatic, topical novel inspired by Shakespeare's Othello which will appeal to both boys and girls with its themes of football and celebrity culture.
