Patricia Dennison’s life is a chain of melodramatic events on the disastrous scale of the Titanic. Terrorists have executed her father on a passenger plane. She has inherited a multibillion-dollar empire that she doesn’t want, & whose directors are plotting against her. The philanthropic doctor to whom she is engaged turns out to be gay.
