Prologue

STAGE LUST! The Incurable Itch to get to the top any way at all! It drove Carla, "Hollywood's Sex Queen". But some lusts are even more compelling than a sexpot love-goddess's wanton ambitions, and Carlo's passion far Phil Devlin, the dark, tall, handsome bit player led them into a boudoir conspiracy that made them both captive to the domineering tastes of money-mad Jason Thorpe. Captive to his sinful desires, his ambitions, they danced to the sin-tune his money demanded. Together, they paid the price of wanting Jason Thorpe to do them a favor ... But it was blonde Iris Langford, the starlet who couldn't act except in bed who played and paid the highest price of all. A price delivered with a shriek of horror as the lust curtain fell on a final scene of shameful passion!
