A luxurious yacht in the Sea of Cortez, a birthday cruise
for one of the world’s most beautiful women and an
invitation no one can refuse. The Power Trip—take if it
you dare.
From Hollywood icon and mega-seller Jackie Collins comes a
thrilling new novel, The Power Trip, set on a state of the
art luxury yacht off the coast of Cabo San Lucas. A
tropical getaway with a cast of global power-hungry elites
turns sour when they find out maybe they don't control as
much of the world as they thought . . .
In The Power Trip you will meet Aleksandr Kasianenko, a
billionaire Russian oligarch, as he sets sail on The Bianca.
You’ll meet his sexy supermodel girlfriend, whom The Bianca
is named after, and five dynamic, powerful, and famous
couples invited on the yacht’s maiden voyage: Hammond
Patterson, a driven Senator, and his lovely but unhappy
wife, Sierra; Cliff Baxter, a charming, never-married movie
star, and his ex-waitress girlfriend, Lori; Taye Sherwin, a
famous black UK footballer and his interior designer wife,
Ashley; Luca Perez, a male Latin singing sensation with his
older decadent English boyfriend, Jeromy; and Flynn, a
maverick journalist with his Asian renegade female friend,
Xuan.
You will also meet Russian mobster, Sergei Zukov, a man with
a grudge against Aleksandr. And Sergei’s Mexican beauty
queen girlfriend, Ina, whose brother, Cruz, is a master
pirate with orders to hold The Bianca and its illustrious
rota of guests for ransom.
The Power Trip explorers the decadent playgrounds of the
super-rich . . . and leaves you hungry for more.
