In a busy London corporate law firm, Cooper-Fozard, Stephen Bradley and his team work fast and furious to form mergers, takeovers and buyouts for a range of clients. But it's never as clear and clinical. When colleagues work hard, they often play hard too; and working closely sometimes brings people together after hours. Soon you develop a taste for a good deal, and you can sense a suspicious one at forty paces. And above all, though you don't have to like the people you work with, you learn that you do need to trust them.

Based on a true story. Karen is a woman with a taste for excitement, bored with the daily routine. Dominic is attractive, powerful, seductive; a sexy opportunist who tricks his way into her life and invites her to join him on a roller coaster ride of thrills, bizarre games and excitement. He is also a man with a dangerous side; a ruthless control freak who knows what he wants and will stop and nothing to get it. Together, they explore the furthest, darkest reaches of his wild fantasies - a journey of self-discovery that takes Karen to her limits - to the deepest shades of darkness and beyond.
