Von der hinteren Coverseite

While honeymooning in Barbados, property developer Stephen Reece-Carlton and his bride Christina discover a magical but derelict old colonial mansion. There and then they decide to buy it and turn it into a luxury hotel. 'Platinum Coast' charts the rise of a great international business from these impulsive beginnings.

It is the story of the three members of the Carlton family: Stephen, whose ambition breeds ever greater ruthlessness as his business expands, Christina, increasingly neglected by her husband but finding solace in the attention of a young Englishman, Martin Ward; and Victoria, Stephen's daughter by an earlier marriage, consumed with loathing for Christina and possessing a devastating secret which can shatter Stephen's empire.
