THE CRASHER

Written by the former editor of HARPER'S BAZAAR, the novel depicts the elite fashion world of New York City, a whirl of parties, clothes, restaurants, loves and the omnipresent drug world. Plucky Ginny Walker must fight her way through many layers of society, as well as material, to attain her long sought goal of fashion designer, all the while avoiding the traps inherent to social climbing. Toren is unstintingly expert with Shirley Lord's characters, from the beautiful to the despicable, bringing them to life with all their hidden agendas and passion.
