When lifelong friends Lola, Belle, Maisie, and Sophia reunite at their beloved Corner Park Clubhouse for the winter school holidays, Lola has a great idea: they'll enter the local drama competition! It's the perfect way to spend as much time together as possible, and there are prizes for best actor, director and sets. As an artist, Lola’s determined her sets will win—but there’s just one problem. She can’t figure out what to paint, or even how to get started. And that’s because of something that happened at her super sophisticated art school last term—something Lola can’t discuss with anyone. Not her bestie, Belle, who’s brought her new friend Matilda home for the holidays. Not Maisie, who’s always busy with gym. Not Sophia, who’s focused on her secret crush. And not even her cool older sister, Tally, who’s at a conference in New York. With no one to turn to but herself, can Lola figure out how to get her creativity back—before it’s too late?
