At its head was one of the wealthiest men in the world-a man who has just died in a mysterious accident and left his daughter, Elizabeth, in control of the company. Now as this intelligent, tough, and gorgeous woman dares to save-not sell-Roffe and Sons, she will have to outwit those who secretly want her power . . . and the unknown assassin who wants her life.

First and foremost, there is abundant_ adult content here. I read it at age 17--over the protest of a local librarian who thought a pup like me shouldn't read it. She said it was too racy. It was an eye-opener even though I have no eyes. I had to read it with head phones, lest my mother hear it and fall dead of apoplexy. Elizabeth is the least likable character in the book--a whiny uptight cow. I like the other characters--3 of whom marry Roth women to their sorrow. The Italian and the Brit are funny. Maybe Sheldon didn't write this to be funny, but funny it is in some ways. and highly memorable more than 30 years after it hit the stores.
