Book description
Only minutes after Abbie Elliot and her three best friends step off a
private helicopter, they enter the most luxurious, sumptuous,
sensually pampering hotel they have ever been to. Their lavish
presidential suite overlooks Monte Carlo, and they surrender: to the
sun and pool, to the sashimi and sake, to the Bruno Paillard
champagne. For four days they're free to live someone else's life. As
the weekend moves into pulsating nightclubs, high-stakes casinos, and
beyond, Abbie is transported to the greatest pleasure and release she
has ever known.
In the morning's harsh light, Abbie awakens on a yacht, surrounded
by police. Something awful has happened - something impossible,
unthinkable. Abbie, Winnie, Serena, and Bryah are arrested and accused
of the foulest crime imaginable. And now the vacation of a lifetime
becomes the fight of a lifetime - a fight for survival.
Guilty Wives is the ultimate indulgence, the kind of non-stop
joy-ride of excess, friendship, betrayal, and danger that only James
Patterson can create.
