From the first page you know you're in for a ride that promises mystery, desire, and danger, both emotional and physical. As if that weren't enough, Lee delivers sharp observations on Otherness and belonging, the rabid cultural consumption of Beauty, les temps perdus, and the toxicity of the privileged.
