Copious glitz and glamour bonkbusters grace the shelves this year. One with perhaps more meat than the rest is this female style James Bond caper. Full of adventure and exotic locations, it stars a plucky woman waking up on her wedding morning in Thailand to find her husband murdered beside her and the weapon in her hand. She has no option but to flee … and then the fun begins. This has pace, mystery and hot sex. Great fun.
