Cassandra's Plan Kathryn M Burke

Cassandra Phillips wants to kill her husband. Over the years her relationship with David Phillips has gone sour-partly due to the fact that David has never fully gotten over his college sweetheart, Lauren Oxley, whom Cassandra pushed out of the way to win David's heart. Lauren, devastated by the breakup, made some pornographic videos in a desperate attempt to put David out of her mind. Now, she is being blackmailed over some nude photos of her and appeals to David for help. In this grim, action-packed thriller, evoking the bleak ambiance of film noir but with red-hot sexual situations, we see a succession of lives shattered by emotional traumas and bad decisions-and we also get a peek at the sordid world of the New York porn industry. The novel ends with a spectacular and unexpected twist that no reader is likely to forget.
