Claire De Lune

You are invited to the galaxy's most prestigious beauty pageant. Swimwear optional. Romance and danger...fully provided... Cocky young Detectives Gerry Rappeneau and Sebastian Thorpe-Campbell arrive at the premier lunar resort expecting a week of eye candy and long massages. One contestant, Evelyn Lyons, has been attacked, and her assailant is now dead. It's surely a simple case of a stalker-gone-mad, as nothing bad has ever happened at the Selene contest before - or so the brochure says. The assassin, however, turns out to be a horrific hybrid of man and feral beast. No one seems to know where it came from or why, including the wily resort administrator who's desperate to keep the whole thing under wraps. The closer Gerry gets to Evelyn, the more certain he is she's hiding something. His meticulous character sparks with her wild, sassy nature, and they soon embark on a torrid affair. But their forbidden romance isn't the only thing set to ignite in Pont de Reves. Sebastian's infatuation with demure beauty Claire Villiers, another mysterious contestant who may or may not be connected to the case, threatens to put all four of them in harm's way. With a half-billion-credit purse up for grabs, this year's pageant is the focus of a hundred worlds. And beauty isn't the only thing in the eye of the beholder. A deadly trail of corporate conspiracy, monstrous assassins and hot bikini wax is more than anyone bargained for in this incendiary erotic mystery. Get ready for some serious heat on the dark side of the moon...
