Enter Olivia Joules: fearless, dazzling, independent
beauty-journalist turned master-spy – a new heroine for the
twenty-first century. In Miami for a face-cream launch, she spots
Pierre Ferramo across a room. Dangerously charismatic and undeniably
gorgeous, with impeccable taste, unimaginable wealth and exotic
international homes, he seems almost too good to be true. But what
if Ferramo is actually a major terrorist bent on destruction, hiding
behind a smokescreen of fine wines, yachts and actresses slash
models? Or is it all just a product of Olivia’s overactive
imagination?
From the white heat of Miami to the implants of LA, the glittering waters of the Caribbean to the deserts of Arabia, Olivia Joules pits herself against the forces of terror armed with a hatpin, razor-sharp wits and a very special underwired bra. Helen Fielding has written a contemporary and utterly unputdownable thriller de luxe. |
