...daughter-in-law. She had her own public relations business before she married Prince Edward in 1999 to become H.R.H. the Countess of Wessex. She seemed perfect for the post-Diana media fishbowl--a p.r. executive with stage presence, delighted to be part of the Firm instead of throwing acid on it. Then Sophie fell for the oldest trick in the tabloid book...
...weaves pure action poetry of the frenzied, explosive kind. Words fail to describe the raw power distilled in each battle. The stars acquit themselves brilliantly, especially Chan.
