内容简介 Book Description Madison Castelli is back! The beautiful and street-smart heroine of L.A. Connections is having problems: her ex-lover who walked out on her is trying to walk back in; her new lover is giving her a hard time; and her father turns out to be a man with deadly secrets.
Set between the high-powered world of New York and the manic excitement of Las Vegas, here is a deliciously uninhibited tale of cover-ups, deception and mob involvement. Packed with intrigue, glamour and an irresistible cast of characters, Lethal Seduction will seduce you all the way...
Synopsis New York fashion designer Jamie Nova has chosen the glitz of Las Vegas as the setting for celebrating her impending divorce. Joined by her two best friends, street-smart Madison Castelli, and Natalie de Barge, an ambitious TV reporter - Jamie plans to make the most of her hard-earned holiday and forget all about her controlling ex. When the threesome encounters Mark Blaine, the fun-loving playboy scion of a real estate billionaire, things start to heat up very quickly. Madison and Natalie receive a frantic midnight phone call telling them Mark is lying in Jamie's bed. And he's dead...
作者简介 Jackie Collins is the author of twenty-one provocative and controversial international bestsellers. She lives in Beverly Hills, California.
编辑推荐 Amazon.co.uk Review The location is New York; the heroine is Madison Castelli, femme fatale of LA Connections, who's gorgeous and clever, but at 30 is having boyfriend problems. Discovering a few deadly secrets about her parents makes things even more horrid. Fortunately the flash of rugged photographer Jake's smile, and a few other things, takes her mind off things. Meanwhile, spoilt rich-girl Rosarita is married to a daytime soap star whose name-change, from Dick Cockranger to Dex Falcon, has paid dividends. Only Rosarita wants Dex out of her life (as in concrete shoes, permanent style), to make room for a billionaire's son whose idea of lunch at his desk involves the words "Rosarita" and "mouthful", preferably with the blinds open so that the occupants of the adjacent sykscraper can gape. Then there's a lap-dancer called Varoomba with silicon implants so huge that simply standing upright is a challenge; a bad-tempered supermodel with a penchant for teenage Latino lads; and an errant husband whose mistress turns out to be a "master".
There are so many colourful characters jostling for attention in Lethal Seduction that the plot takes on a distinctly "supporting role". After 30 years in the business, Jackie Collins has pulled out all the stops for this, her 19th bestseller. While the action swings from the hard-nosed world of NY to the surreal Strip of Las Vegas, Ms Collins has trawled the alphabet to make sure she has every known sexual type, deviation and plot line in place: from assholes to voyeurs, and coke-kings to mafia-men, with murder, mayhem and madams at every turn. One wonders whether this vulgarity-with-a-morality-sting tale is merely a product of the over-ripe imagination of an experienced writer or the real-life experiences of a rich woman who lives in Beverly Hills and knows everyone. Whatever, if you like the Collins style, you'll just lurrve this. --Carey Green
