About this book

In Burnline, an uncredited lyricist devises a fair system for sharing songwriting credit, then learns exactly how to rig it.

In 1976 Los Angeles, a rock band works under sealed recording rules: each musician hears only part of a song, and every vote alters both the master tape and the royalty split. Told through letters, ledgers, route cards, engineering records and sworn statements, Burnline makes each technical detail sharpen a relationship or threaten a right. When the paperwork proves the lyricist manipulated the band’s masterpiece, her solo future depends on whether she admits what she did.
