AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'James Alabaster, a man without a future, ekes out a bare existence on the fringes of Sydney's cafe society. All that sustains him is his obsession for Carla Sully, wife of one of Australia's richest men. Then chance and a pornographic home video bring Carla and James together. One by one, the video's sizeable cast are dying of unnatural causes. Is it bizarre coincidence or a murderous conspiracy?' (Publication summary)

Notes

  • Dedication: To Jeni and to my mother and father.
  • Epigraph: I've been bought and sold and
    I've been hung upside down
    so you can hear me breathing
    do you think it's easy?
    I've been aching all through summer
    I've been aching just to fall
    cut me down
    cut me down - Cut Me Down, Lloyd Cole and the Commotions
