Suddenly there was a flashbulb at the picture window! Two lovers caught
in complex plot of blackmail, duels, secret codes, and suicide.
What happens when a young jet-setter has to choose between two of his
cousins?
It all seemed like such scandalous fun until tragedy struck one dark
night on an ocean-liner.

A wonderfully sensuous story of Demonic possession among the fabulously
rich, with their high-priced call-girls and private plantations by the
author of the sensational best-seller *Lolita*, soon to be seen at
theaters everywhere.

The Book-of-the-Month selection that everyone will be talking about,
*Chronicles of Ardor*.
