(  ) JessicaCapelle | Sep 1, 2009 |  A murder takes place in a British Big Brother type program called "House Arrest". The remaining contenders have to choose to stay and collect big money or run the risk of being the next victim. (  ) maree57 | Jul 7, 2009 | I Am a fan of Big Brother evern though every year I say I will not watch it,so I was really looking forward to reading this book. It did not disappoint and kept me guessing right till the end ...I had no idea "who done it" It also was very funny as always with Ben Eltons book I laughed till I cryed in some parts. I would recomend this book to anyone not just Big Brother fans ( ) julieward | Apr 8, 2009 | Excellent read, didn't work out who dunit til the end. ( ) Lizzydripping | Mar 8, 2008 | I'm not really into the whole reality TV jaunt and I found it really hard to get started with this book. It wasn't long, however, before I found myself getting involved with the characters and trying to figure out who the killer was. It seemed just about everyone had some kind of motive. I have to admit, I was only half right in my guess. This isn't the most brilliantly written book in the universe, but I'd say it's worth taking a look.

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0552149020, Paperback)From a celebrity performer, bestselling author of Popcorn and Inconceivable, a stunning satire on the modern obsession with fame.One house. Ten contestants. Thirty cameras. Forty microphones. Yet again the public gorges its voyeuristic appetite as another group of unknown and unremarkable people submit themselves to the brutal exposure of the televised real-life soap opera, House Arrest. Everybody knows the rules: total strangers are forced to live together while the rest of the country watches them do it. Who will crack first? Who will have sex with whom? Who will the public love and who will they hate? All the usual questions. And then suddenly, there are some new ones. Who is the murderer? How did he or she manage to kill under the constant gaze of the thirty cameras? Why did they do it? And who will be next?
