About This Item
Synopsis
Ken and Sheila Kramer appear to have a comfortable life and loving marriage. But when Ken is introduced to Carol, the wife of his wife’s major client, we discover that she is Ken’s old flame, the love of his life and the object of his sexual obsession as a young man. Carol has totally reinvented herself and married a rich husband who has no knowledge of her early life. While unbeknownst to Ken, his wife is carrying on a steamy affair with her client. When love and sexual obsession again bursts into flames between Ken and Carol, the plot of this masterful black comedy thickens as both couples embark on an African Safari with startling and tragic results.The author of The War of the Roses surpasses himself with this powerful novel of love and betrayal, sexual passion and emotional obsession. It is storytelling at its dramatic best and once again shows Warren Adler’s indisputable mastery of contemporary marital relationships.
