Book description
No one forgets Miss Cathy Fox in a hurry. From her scorpion tattoo to
her other more worldly charms she's a woman on a mission to get what she wants.
From her humble beginnings folding knickers as a matron's assistant at
a top girls' boarding school, Cathy embarks on a journey that will take
her from a Portsmouth backstreet to the boardrooms of the global
empires. With a cast of footballers, media moguls, lords and dukes,
Coleridge charts the rise of a woman who will not be denied, right to
the very pinnacle of society - a Royal Wedding.
Cutting a sweep from the 80s to the present day, THE ADVENTURESS charts
the rise and rise of Miss Cathy Fox. Irresistibly funny and utterly
addictive, this is a delicious tale of money, power, sex and having it
all. Nicholas Coleridge is managing director of Condé Nast in Britain,
the magazine publishing house that includes Vogue
, Tatler
, House & Garden
and Vanity Fair
. He lives in London and is married with four children.
