Angels on Sunset Boulevard

Hardcover.
Pay to get in.
Pray to get out.
Johnny Silver is the world's soon-to-be biggest rock star, but on the eve of his debut concert in Los Angeles, he mysteriously disappears, causing global pandemonium. His friend Taj tries to discover the truth about his disappearance, which leads her to TAP.com and its shadowy founder, Sutton Werner, who throws the wildest parties in Bel-Air.
TAP started out innocently enough, as a website that dishes the dirt on the kids of Sunset Boulevard and beyond. But it has become something more. Membership is a privilege with responsibilities and consequences.
At Sutton's parties, anything goes, especially in the legendary backroom rituals nicknamed The Angels Practice. Rumors abound of a special drink handed out at the parties that tap into otherworldly sensations.
One night Taj meets Nick, a Westside preppie who doesn't buy into the TAP mayhem, especially since his kid sister never came home from attending one of its blow-out bashes. Slowly the two of them are drawn to TAP and to each other. But Taj just might know more than she's letting on....
Are you ready for the darker side of Tinsel-town's brightest lights?

My 108th read of 2007.
Honestly, what a weird book. A lot different than what I'm used to from this author. The whole TAP thing was a bit confusing, so I hope it's cleared up in the next book. And the way this one ended, there *has* to be a next book!

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Fulfilling a wish for a PBS member. 
WOW EllyMae. I apologize. I swear I logged this the day I got it. But I may just be thinking of the PBS private message I sent. SORRY! Received via Paper Back Swap in July.
This is the first de la Cruz book I have read. I have the whole au Pairs series at home but have yet to read it. I had actually just picked this up to put in the bathroom for future reading (always keep something in there...) and read the first few pages. I was HOOKED!!! I couldn''t put it down and have read it in one sitting. I thought it was actually pretty interesting and mysterious. And as Elly said, there has to be another book. There are too many unanswered questions. Have posted on PBS so will be mailing it out to whomever is next on a wish list! Thanks Elly for sharing!
