From the Back Cover

A beautiful young model leaps to her death in New York’s East River.

Her body is never found, her macabre mutilation never recorded. Few people miss her – but for her employer, wealthy salon-owner Joanna Lefever, it is the way into a bizarre and brutal new life.

Joanna and her husband Stephen seem to have everything. Her business is successful, he’s making his mark in the world of behavioural psychology. But guilt over the tragic death of their infant son is driven them apart. Now, in the suffocating August heat, tension builds to exploding point. on chance meeting leads Joanna to an exciting new obsession.

Thus begins a shadowy, seductive game of afternoon delights and erotic dangers, driving her ever deeper into her new persona. Can Stephen, with his psychologist’s skills, break the spell of her compulsion and snatch her from the deadly fate for which she is unknowingly being prepared?
