Plot Summary of Falling Stars
"Four very talented girls are brought together in New York at a prestigious Senetsky School of the Performing Arts. They become very close even though their backgrounds are very different. They need each other as they realize Madame Senetsky is not your average teacher. She controls their every move. Cinnamon, Ice, Rose and Honey, through a series of strange events, have reason to believe there is someone kept prisoner above them. They set out to explore, finding out more than they bargained for. Madame Senetsky is keeping her daughter prisoner in the upper rooms of the mansion. The girls become friends with the daughter who is mentally challenged. There is a lot more to Madame Senetsky then they ever imagined. This book will surpise and delight you."
Sherrie L. Jones, Resident Scholar
