SHE WANTED IT ALL AND WOULD STOP AT NOTHING TO GET IT

Colburn paused, his mind crawling with thoughts, none of them pleasant.
‘I don’t even know what you actually do, how far you go for that scum, Darcey …’
She didn’t enlighten him. Brazen as she was, even Dana was reticent about revealing the sordid secrets of her love life with Darcey – if love life was the right term. Lust life, was maybe more apt.
‘Well?’ he said. ‘Are you going to come clean?’
‘About how far I go?’ She chuckled, though mirth was absent from her eyes. ‘All the way, darling. I go all the way.’

Desirable, scheming, amoral, Dana Colburn is loved by three men.

Her adoptive brother, Gary, a publisher of erotic fiction and soft porn, returning from the USA to the country of his birth to buy a business, hopes to meet up with Dana whom he hasn’t seen since the split up of his parents when he was a teenager. His motives may be less than pure.

Her publishing executive husband, Terry Huntley, father of her two children, talented yet weak, willing to turn a blind eye to the infidelities that enable them to live in luxury. Willing, that is, until now.

Her lover, Nicholas Darcey, educated thug with connections in the upper echelons of government that place him beyond the reach of the law. His Svengali-like hold over Dana is absolute; her submission to his will is unconditional and infinite.

Gary soon discovers that Dana is a willing pawn in an extortion racket and that the law is closing in on her. His efforts to save her from the consequences of her folly prompt a clash of interests and emotions and a ‘survival of the fittest’ contest in which no one is guaranteed to emerge the victor.
