Monstering the Rocketman

Monstering the Rocketman
By Henry Naylor

It's Elton John vs The Sun! Worlds biggest star battles world's toughest tabloid in epic eighties' clash!

When the soaraway Sun newspaper falsely accuses Elton John, 39, of bonking rent boys, the Rocketman blasts off a whopping multi-million lawsuit…

But fuming editor, Kelvin Mackenzie, 40, is unrepentant and launches a blistering campaign of media harassment.

At the end will Elton still be standing? Or will the Sun go down on him?

Based on the true story of Britain’s largest-ever libel case, it features Ferraris, punch-ups, gangsters, bugged phone calls, Princess Diana, the Vice Squad and some Devil Dogs.
