Love, lust, and the pursuit of power among the beautiful people of Tinsel Town are played to the hilt in this novel by a best-selling English author. Roxana Felix, supermodel extraordinaire, wants to make it on the silver screen; Eleanor Marshall, pioneer female studio president, wants a big hit and a baby; and would-be screen writer Megan Silver just wants out of her drab, hand-to-mouth existence. Megan's idea for a blockbuster plot gives her the courage to storm the bastion of Artemis Studios at just the right moment for arrogant CEO Tom Goldman, who takes the story and runs with it straight to Eleanor, who taps Roxana for the lead. As fate would have it, when Triple Feature is made, all three are rewarded for their relentless pursuit of fame and power, and everyone lives affluently and happily ever after. Raunchy, racy, and pure commercial fiction, this novel will likely go straight to a theater near you. For popular collections.?Susan Clifford, Palos Verdes Lib. Dist., Rolling Hills Estates, Cal.

From Booklist
Powerful agent Sam Kendrick prides himself on the lucrative movie packages that he and his agency, SKI, assemble from their roster of clients. This time he snares the hot Generation X director Fred Florescu while his blindly ambitious associate David Tauber signs the former Death Angel rocker Zach Mason and supermodel Roxana Felix, both of whom want to break out of their current careers. In a stroke of good timing, Kendrick also grabs the novice screenwriter Meagan Silver, whose "Triple Feature" script seems perfect for his two untried actors. Eleanor Marshall, the new president of Artemis Studios, green-lights this package deal and takes on an avalanche of responsibilities as the project moves from preproduction to actual filming. On location in the Seychelles, several calculated errors are engineered to sabotage the shoot and get Marshall fired. Relationships on and off camera are big, bold, and erotically charged. Sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll, designer suits by Hugo Boss and Chanel, vintage Taittinger champagne, and dark, dark secrets--Bagshawe's Hollywood potboiler has it all.
