From Gloria Vanderbilt comes a story of erotic obsession, told in tandem. Priscilla Bingham was one half of the perfect elite New York couple until her beloved husband P.J. Talbot unexpectedly died in the middle of their tenth wedding anniversary celebration. Years later, Pris stumbles upon a collection of letters among Talbot's papers. There - on the most exquisite paper, in the most exquisite detail - is Pris' undoing. The letters are from Talbot's 'Queen Bea', his treasured mistress/dominatrix who 'organizes his erotica' and has spared no detail of it (or her disdain for 'Wife') in her correspondence. From the moment she discovers Bea, Pris is obsessed with her, with Talbot, with their sex. And her obsession must be satiated.
