Book description
MAX SALL, powerful, wealthy and utterly ruthless, a man without a past
... His wife, ANGELA, a society debutante who fell in love with the
dark, handsome stranger, and broke her parents' hearts when she married
him ... His mistress, FRANCESCA, the glamorous air stewardess, who saw
in Max her ticket out of the Italian provinces and grabbed it - and him
- with both hands ... And his daughters: AMBER, more like her father
than she'll ever know, smart, shrewd and determined to achieve, whatever
the cost; and PAOLA, groomed by her mother to succeed where she failed,
in getting a man to marry her. Max's women are very different, but they
all demand his attention. While Amber and Paola are growing up in the
1970s, their mothers somehow find a way to share Max between them. But
when Amber and Paola fall in love with the same man two decades later,
they're determined that this time there will be no sharing... After
various careers from cocktail waitress to kibbutz worker, Lesley Lokko
trained as an architect. Several novels later, Lesley now splits her
time between Accra and London and occassionally, Edinburgh. Find out
