โฆ Synopsis
As the wife of a successful Irish diplomat, Anna O'Connor moves to Paris, city of her dreams. But the dream starts to turn into a bizarre nightmare when Michael, a drunken, womanising Irish journalist comes to stay. Her unattractive house guest and workaholic husband are driving her to distraction when she meets Juan, a sexy, sophisticated and definitely attractive Spanish diplomat. More than a little smitten, she agrees to deliver a secret letter to a top Irish politician - an act that will cause a scandal, threatening her marriage and her husband's career. Set in glamorous locations-a ball at the opera, a chateau in the French countryside and a luxury yacht in the Greek islands-this witty, flirty book romps through some unexpected back corridors of diplomacy on its way to a surprising ending.
British spelling and grammar.
