Frankie Kane was selfish, ruthless, and rich. The sign on the high wall he'd built around himself bluntly said "No Trespassing." Maybe it was because he'd been raised in a Catholic orphanage - only to find out he was a Jew. Maybe he'd just grown up too fast. Whatever it was, no one got behind that wall. Not Ruth, who loved him - or Julie, or Marianne, or Terry, who loved him too.
Frankie's story is the story of city streets, bread lines, and the big time, of the high price on ambition and success. It shows that the world is willing to give you not what you tear out of it but what you put into it. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Never love a stranger (Harold Robbins)
