Gender Game

Publisher Marketing: A Thriller Steve, having made a fortune from his high tech business in California, decides to travel and enjoy his wealth and so he gravitates to London where he meets and falls head over heels love with Janie, an intelligent and beautiful young fund manager. Steve and Janie seem to have it all; a deep love for one another, wealth, youth, talent and good looks combine to offer them a perfect life. And that's what they seem destined for as they enjoy an idyllic few months together until, following a trip back to California, opportunity, temptation, and perhaps a little boredom too, lure Steve into an incredible secret life which turns into an obsession. Janie's suspicions about Steve's behaviour and his periodic disappearances, compounded by mounting problems at work from a misogynistic boss and work colleague, cause her to become increasingly unhappy so thank goodness for her friend and confidante, Stella, who is there for her when Steve is not; but unbeknownst to Janie, Stella has her own secret life. With hindsight, the crisis that causes everything to career out of control seems inevitable and, although its impact is very different on Steve, Janie and Stella, it is equally devastating for all three. And, of course, when lives are shattered, equally inevitably, thoughts of revenge soon follow. That revenge, when it comes, is as mind blowing as it is terrible.
