An Evening with M.L. Rio at University Church, Oxford

Hot Wax

The bestselling author of dark academia classics If We Were Villains and Graveyard Shift channels the spirit of the 90s rock scene in this unputdownable, twist-laden thriller.

A nostalgic love-letter to the 90s rock and roll scene, Hot Wax follows a band of rocker misfits, rivals and trailblazers on the tour that could have catapulted them to super-stardom, if it all hadn't come crashing down.
