Book description
Combining glamorous characters, glorious locations and an intelligent,
compelling plot, Lesley Lokko's novels are rich, satisfying and
all-consuming. The much-heralded 'return of the blockbuster' is finally
here - and Lesley Lokko delivers all the classic ingredients -
international settings, riveting plots, great characters and a dose of a
glamour - but brought bang up to date. Shot through intelligence and
emotional drama, her novels offer the perfect escape into another world
- whether it's that of the international jet set, or the dark deeds of
the backstreets - and Lesley makes the journey immense fun along the
way. Fabulous friendships you won't forget, cruel betrayals and
passionate relationships - Lesley gives you a book to lose yourself in,
and a world to fall in love with. Lesley Lokko was born in Scotland in
1964 of mixed Ghanaian-Scots parentage. She grew up in Ghana, and was
