Soft!

Meer over het boek

The waitress Glade Spencer -- white-blond hair, perfect skin, just 22 years old -- drifts innocent and waiflike through life, thus far avoiding harm to herself. . . Barker Dodds, hoping to shed his hard-man reputation, has fled his native Plymouth for a fresh start in London. There, meanwhile, in an act of desperate inspiration, an ambitious young executive faced with a saturated market, contrives a revolutionary strategy for introducing a new beverage, Soft!, that has all the potential of becoming the soft drink of the 21st century. Once this highly confidential strategy develops unforeseen complications, Barker is paid a visit by a friend from the old life, and soon is presented with an unthinkable dilemma. And the person with whom he now shares a destiny -- unbeknownst to her -- is Glade.
