The Spa Decameron
Author: Fay Weldon
Publisher: Hachette UK
ISBN: 184916892X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 358
Book Description
Ten high achieving ladies are gathered together in the week between Christmas and the New Year, at the expensive Castle Spa, seeking, through Botox, aromatherapy and general all round pampering, a new beginning to their lives. The Ladies lounge around in the Jacuzzi, drinking champagne and eating chocolate telling each other the stories of their lives. Starting with the Trophy wife's tale: her spell in a Greek prison has left her in serious need of a makeover; the Brain Surgeon's tale: of twins and mistaken identity; the Judge's tale: of the sex change which allowed him to judge the pleasures of the bedchamber from both male and female perspectives. The manicurist, the public speaker, the journalist, the company director, the ex vicar's wife, the screenwriter, all share their stories, ending with the stepmother's tale, a reversal of Cinderella's fate, with the stepmother as victim... Sparkling, witty, always compassionate and occasionally libidinous, Fay Weldon's new novel recalls Boccaccio's late medieval masterwork, The Decameron. Boccaccio dedicated his book to the ladies of his time, who were forced to hide their amorous passions under a veil of discretion, while men were free to indulge theirs.

Pages : 242
Book Description
Southern California. Today. Jewels Martin . . . Beneath the stylish clothes, the flowing hair, and the beautiful lean body beats the heart of a tiger. And on rare special occasions, she’d let the tiger out of its cage. Today was one of those days. “I’m Jewels,” she said, gracefully closing the distance between them and extending her hand. Taking it, he offered, “I’m Todd Windham.” She liked what she saw. He had clear eyes, a firm jaw, and was clean shaven. He was slightly greying but had a full head of neatly trimmed hair – early fifties, slight build, almost athletic looking. She smiled as their eyes met, thinking to herself this might be fun. Innocence, passion, and betrayal . . . Having paid a precious price, the elites now know it requires considerably more than just having the president’s DNA on a blue dress. An expensive lesson they will never forget, nor ever repeat. A story of manipulation, wealth, power, and sex. The oldest profession in the world elevated to new heights; alive and well just below the surface, from the streets of Newport Beach to the hallowed halls of the White House itself. With organized escort services subtly working the waterfront, the NBPD has its hands full. But it’s not until the FBI shows up that things take an unexpected turn, with the very foundation of America’s financial system hanging in the balance, as layer after layer of The Spa is unveiled. To say the business of pleasure is alive and flourishing would be an understatement. Normalcy bias makes this scenario inconceivable, and even though the facts are all there in the history books, perhaps shrouded through the mists of time, but none-the-less available for anyone to read. Knowledge is one thing, as is power, money and sexuality. It is what one does with them that determines one’s destiny.

Ten women indulge themselves—and divulge their secrets—in this witty novel: “Immensely entertaining...The entire gamut of the female experience is covered.”—The Times (UK) In the lull between Christmas and New Year’s, ten high-achieving ladies are gathered at the expensive Castle Spa in Cumbria, England, seeking to rejuvenate themselves with Botox, aromatherapy, and all-around pampering.
