Publisher Description

A sizzling tale of ambition, lust, and power in the glittering world of old Hollywood

Jonas Cord coveted his father's fame, fortune, and even his young, beautiful wife. When his father died, Jonas swore to possess them all. But Rina Marlow was the celebrated screen goddess no man could master. Her sensuality inflamed and enthralled millions, but her personal life was no Hollywood fantasy. She consumed her lovers on the fiery rack of her burning desires.

Rina and Jonas took Hollywood and America by storm, brawling and lusting as they carved out an empire blazoned in headlines and enemies' blood. But money, power, revenge and renown were not enough for these two. The higher they soared, the darker and deadlier their fiery passions grew.

Carpetbaggers is a legendary masterpiece of historical fiction that boldly explores sex, power and the early days of Hollywood. This provocative classic offers a graphic depiction of the film industry and the scorching desires that drove it.

The Carpetbaggers

Harold Robbins' masterpiece was very hard to put down. I found it very interesting the way he outlined a plot, and then wrote separate descriptions for the main characters, and intertwined them throughout the novel, so that he kind of had separate books within the body of work. The character development was sheer genius, the plot riveting, including all of the steamy sex scenes. I am glad to have read MR. Robbins' best book, and will most assuredly read more of his offerings.
