Description: The sleazy glitter of London in the late 1960s and early 1970s provides a backdrop for murder. Nightclub bunny Alice Conway met television comedian Lenny Maxted in a scene out of a James Bond movie: she was speeding along in a white Mercedes Cabriolet and he whipped past in his blue Aston Martin coupe, racing her to a stop. When Lenny visited the nightclub accompanied by the other half of his comic duo, Jack Flowers, the chitchat was full of sexual innuendo. Soon Alice and Lenny fell in love, leaving Jack to his suburban wife, Val. Then Jack and Lenny split and Lenny committed suicide. Six years later. Alice, alone in her country hideaway, receives newspaper clippings of a woman's body recently discovered at the bottom of a lake. Alice believes the dead woman is Kitty, a fellow bunny who disappeared shortly before Lenny's death.More questions arise and danger threatens when Jack shows up at Alice's door, triggering memories and telling lies.
