Omschrijving

An American BrontE House and its secrets Like jewels strung along Lakeshore Drive stand
the homes of the wealthy auto barons. Among them is the Carey mansion, nicknamed "The
BrontE House" by passersby because of its brooding facade.
As a teenager, Tom Quinn used to cruise Lakeshore Drive and its Grosse Pointe mansions, but it's
now the mid-1990s, and Quinn, a journalist, has been assigned to cover a reality television show
being fi lmed at the Carey mansion. Quinn, a Viet Nam veteran who considers himself a hard-boiled
man of the streets, has a rooted dislike of the privileged rich but an equal horror of exploitative
TV. Nevertheless, he takes the job and meets Sheila Carey, who represents the third generation
of the family. He falls for her but if his romance with Sheila is to survive, he will have to conquer
his antipathy to the rich because she's soon in trouble, along with her entire family, and only
Quinn can help save them.
Hypnosis, murder, cover-ups, scandal, and betrayal - can Quinn with his pragmatism save the day? Himself a spiritual heir of Philip Marlowe, Quinn has his own code of ethics and no one, not even the beautiful daughter of the wealthy Careys, can distract him from doing what he thinks is right.
