Thrust into the international spotlight at the 2012 Olympic Games thanks to her moving performance of "Abide with Me" at the opening ceremony and "Read All About It (Part III)" at the closing ceremony, Emeli Sande is now an international superstar. However, her breakthrough came much earlier, in August 2011, with the release of her first single, "Heaven," which peaked at number two on the UK Singles Chart. Journalist David Nolan delves deep to paint a complete picture of the life of this talented musician, from her childhood in rural Scotland to Olympic glory, and offers a glance at what might be next for this prodigious talent. This is a must-read for any fan.
