Produktbeschreibung

When top Hollywood star and bad girl Clarise Chalmers met a writer of trashy military science fiction William Moreland by chance in a bar she knew he was not her type at all. He was good looking but not of the film star standard she had come to expect and certainly not mega-successful with a top-range sports car. Anyway, she had a boyfriend - another top star and heart throb for millions of female fans. But Will made a lot of sense suggesting solutions to problems that had been plaguing her so she hired him as a business consultant warning him that their relationship would be strictly professional. There were a lot of wolves in Los Angeles of the two-legged kind, both those who wanted her body and those who wanted her money. Will could help in dealing with fee-hungry consultants of all kinds and fending off public attacks from former high-school friend turned nemesis, singing star Connie Leighton. If Will got any romantic ideas he would be shown the door. Fresh from a disastrous relationship with an aspiring actress Will was happy to take the star at her word and was glad of the job. However, Clarise should have taken more trouble to warn herself against getting romantic ideas.

Autorenporträt

After 38 years as a journalist, including more than 30 on the Australian Financial Review, the down under Wall Street Journal, the newspaper I worked for could not stop its advertisers shifting to digital outlets. In 2016, as part of a savage round of redundancies, I was called into the Fairfax boardroom in Sydney (the two big players in the Australian newspaper scene are Fairfax and News) and told "sorry Mark". My original training was in physics and maths, gaining a science degree at Melbourne University in the 1970s. I landed a job at what was then about the only computer newspaper in Australia because I had taught myself to type, from one of my sister's secretarial textbooks. In those days it was rare for a boy to know how to type.

In that very long career in journalism I did specialist/trade, suburban, country/regional and, for the AFR, science reporting, companies (takeovers, profit results, market movements) personal finance, special reports editing, leader writing, accounting/legal reporting and a stint as Perth bureau chief. Now I do a little contract work, the occasional article for The Australian version of the British magazine The Spectator, and write books. I have a wife and adult children in Sydney but at the moment I'm keeping an eye on my aged dad in Melbourne.
