And then there's a desperate call for help from Darwin, from a friend threatened with death, or worse - the zoning minister. The plot doesn't thicken at this point, it positively curdles. Selina is embroiled in mystery, mayhem, attempted murder and an extremely tricky point of etiquette: should a modern girl accept $10,000 on first date?Tropical and topical, it's about socks, lies and audiotape, romance, politics and resort wear.
