Description:
Lushly beautiful, sinfully sexy, and indecently rich, Manuela Aloe is a gift from heaven. Then again, she may be the girlfriend from hell. For from the moment Manny sashays into Britt Rainstar's life, everything begins to go mysteriously, spectacularly wrong. A vicious dog is let loose in his hotel room. He's menaced by a gun-toting skeleton. And, when the stress of these events lands Britt in the hospital, someone pushes his wheelchair down a very steep flight of stairs. All the evidence points to Manuela Aloe.
Expand description
In The Rip-Off, America's foremost practitioner of the extreme thriller creates a screwball comedy of terrors that makes Fatal Attraction look as timid as Love Story. For as the terminally easygoing Britt tries to get out of Manny's clutches -- without ending up on a slab -- Jim Thompson takes readers on a funhouse ride of perversity, paranoia, and mayhem.
