Black Rubber Dress: A Sam Jones Novel
Samantha "Sam" Jones, a London sculptress, revels in the ironies of life. Her recent sale of a colossal mobile to a merchant bank temporarily places her among a group of spoiled rich folk, including an anorexic, a drug-addicted banker's daughter, a hunky corporate financier, and others. Sam's wonderfully sardonic narrative serves as satiric commentary, especially as she and said hunk have their way with each other. Meanwhile, Sam ponders the suspicious import of a security guard's dying words, then investigates a murder involving her sculpture. A topnotch first novel.Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.
