previous smash, international number one bestsellers, Chances

and Lucky -- returns in Lady Boss. And this

time the shockingly sensual, ruthlessly clever Lucky is out to conquer

Hollywood!

In Chances Lucky grew up in a top crime family. In

Lucky, she was married three times. And now, in Lady

Boss, she takes on Hollywood and wins!

Panther Studios is the prize and Lucky wants it... In her quest for power she

meets adversaries and enemies, friends and betrayers. And her relationship with

her husband, charismatic comedian and movie star, Lennie Golden

is put to the test.

Lucky's first challenge is to buy the only movie studio still not controlled by

a powerful conglomerate -- Panther Studios, owned by the retired, irascible, old

Abe Panther. But Abe won't sell his beloved studio to Lucky

until she proves she has the guts to make it in Hollywood. It's his idea that

she disguise herself as a secretary and go in undercover to find out what's

really going on. It's a challenge that also satisfies Lucky's passion

for adventure -- and her desire to take chances...

In the process, Lucky uncovers a world of financial scheming, big-time

betrayal, and bizarre sex.

Panther Studios and Lucky Santangelo... a dangerous mix...

When Lucky makes her final move, assuming the role of Lady Boss

at Panther Studios, she stuns the entire industry and sets off

a series of shock waves, not only threatening her marriage to Lennie, but

bringing down on her head the hatred of crime boss Carlos

Bonnatti -- a hatred that goes back generations, putting in peril her

life, and the lives of everyone close to her!

With Lady Boss, Jackie Collins brings back one of her most

intriguing and endearing characters, Lucky Santangelo. She

also proves once again that she is the unquestioned queen of glamorous fiction.
