Meer over het boek

A roman à clef based on William Randolph Hearst (here called Adam Scofield) and his dynasty. Marion Davies (called Venus Montgomery) is present, and the story brings the Hearst saga up to date with Patty Hearst (Carole Scofield) and her kidnapping by the Resistance Army. *** Description: She is wealthy...she inherited millions. She is powerful...she wields power ruthlessly. She controls the press...people run when she whistles. She uses up husbands...they drop like flies. She has lovers...she keeps them on call. She is the woman they call "The Empress" (behind her back). She is Mary Scofield, the little rich girl who inherited her grandfather's scandal sheets and turned them into a journalistic empire. She is success...until her only daughter disappears and her perfect world falls apart.
