Fashion victim

Viac o knihe

Annie Anderson, feature writer with one of Britain's leading broadsheets, decides to take a break from the tougher end of journalism. After years working undercover befriending prostitutes and drug addicts, the strain is beginning to tell. At 29, Annie has enough baggage to sink a battleship, a strict all-caffeine-no-food diet and a total inability to maintain relationships with men. Where does a girl go from here? she asks. Fashion, that's where. Annie takes a job on the new flagship magazine Handbag, and prepares herself to be whisked into a world of glamour, beauty and power. But she has a sixth sense for trouble - and it doesn't take her long to find it. When New York's hottest young designer, is gunned down in what appears to be a random killing, Annie decides to do a little digging. What Annie discovers is more bizarre - and a whole lot more frightening - than anything seen at London Fashion Week. She has entered a world where beauty hides a multitude of sins, including fraud, corruption and murder. It doesn't take Annie long to see that she may well become fashion's next victim¿
