An Outrageous Affair
by Penny Vincenzi
On This Page
Description
Cloe Windsor discovered that the truth could kill when her famous, rich and charming husband committed suicide. Fleur FitzPatrick found out that the truth could kill during the long and painful journey to avenge her father's death. Caroline Hunterton had always known of its destructive power, but her long buried past was a secret which could not be kept forever. From the Suffolk countryside in World War II to the decadence of post war Hollywood, from the glitz of Madison Avenue to the show more excesses of the theatrical aristocracy in London, this book tells the story of one such truth, brought to light by the brutal investigative skills of one man, and by the publication of the book he was determined to write. show lessTags

I didn't think I was EVER going to finish this book! The story was interesting enough to keep me from putting it down, but not enough to finish it quickly! ARGH. But finish it I did. And it was OK. Not anywhere near as good as the first 3 Vincinzi books I read (the trilogy).
Great book- had me up late each night wanting to read more and more. A real pageturner- good for flights and holidays.
