Synopsis: As X-rated stars descend on the Beaumont Hotel, someone takes a shot at its ownerTerrified of flying, Beaumont Hotel owner George Battle hasn&’t seen America in seventeen years, instead spending his days on the Riviera, counting his money. But pressing business calls him back to the United States: a seven million dollar investment in the latest epic directed by Maxwell Zorn, king of highbrow celluloid smut. It&’s the kind of motion picture that even an old man will want to oversee personally. As Zorn&’s outlandish entourage swarms the illustrious hotel, Battle takes residence in the penthouse suite of his infallible manager, Pierre Chambrun. On his first night there, a bullet splinters the headboard just inches from his face. Was the shot meant for him or Chambrun? The Beaumont&’s top brass must tread lightly. Die, and the Beaumont dies with them—a blow from which the jet-set will never recover.
