To this end Philip enters the Champion entourage a clan so poisonous they make the Borgias look Amish with his songwriting partner Claire. Together they are to turn Champion's talentless wife Iisa (a woman so rich she ovulates Faberge eggs) into a chanteuse. As Philip and Gilbert out spy each other in vyin for Tommy's admiration, plot follows counter plot in a novel whose comic complications, devastating repartee and cast of high hat lowlifes is nothing short of dazzling and unforgettable.
