Kuhusu kitabu hiki cha kusikiliza
Her corpse would be the hottest news in town.
May Laval was as brilliant as a ten-carat diamond—and just as cold. As the calculating ruler of a social set, she influenced generals, politicians, and big businessmen.

One day, May Laval threatened to publish her diary.
Now it's up to PR man Jake Harrison to find out who killed May and—while he's at it—why his wife left him.
