When the women refuse to answer her, Lili proceeds to travel around the world through the playgrounds of the rich and famous, seeking to answer the question that has obsessed and almost destroyed her.LACE, Shirely Conran's frank, scandalous novel, follows a group of women, from adolescence to adulthood, as they negotiate the world of work, broken engagements, heartbreak and lasting friendship.
