I have read a number of Lawrence Sanders books and their always seems to be a certain amount of deviant sex. This book was no exception. The majority of the book was about the relationships between father and children, siblings and their lovers. I enjoyed the book, although not as good as some of Lawrence Sanders books. ( )

Guilty pleasures by Lawrence Sanders
The Fullsby family is into publishing and Barbara has just graduated from college. She informs her daddy that she wants to go into the business after her month long visit with her girlfriend to France and other places.
They share a different kind of love for one another. Her mother is bedridden and doesn't have all her brain when they talk to her.
Brett, her brother is a playboy. Although he loves women he also loves men. Nothing is too good for them. All the dates they have from both sexes.
Story also follows a judge who has a woman who does housekeeping for him and other things... her son is being mentored by the judge and he hopes to get him a job as a lawyer, he's black and he can push him into places he'd not even try to accomplish.
They are at the party were Emmett, the publisher president is retiring and giving his shares of the company to the children. Amazing how he splits his funds between the kids. And he's sailing indefinitely.....
Blackmail ensues and you can't believe the details!
I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device). ( )

This cheeap and tawdry little work is nearly too disgusting for words. Five minutes into the abridged audio version, we find the protagonist (a 22 year old woman) having sex with her own father, something she's been doing with enthusiasm since the age of 17. By 20 minutes into the tape, my skin was crawling and I felt like I needed a bath. Everyone in the story seems to be having loveless raunchy sex with everyone else without regard for gender, age, race, or class. As a result, the reader is immersed into a messy stew of incest, infidelity, impotence, hetero- and homo- sexual escapades, and 'daring' interracial couplings, as well as suicide, blackmail, and financial shenanigans. The bare bones plot acts as filler between gratuitous sex scenes that could hardly be any less erotic.

The second of the two tapes either wasn't as bad as the first, or I'd grown numb and uncaring about its content. Some reviewers at Amazon express doubt that this book was written by Lawrence Saunders; it reportedly was published posthumously under the author's name by his heirs who sought to cash in on the man's reputation. The best one can say about the abridged audio version is that at 3 hrs, it is mercifully short. Even so it's too long. Ugh!!! ( )

I've liked many of Sanders' mysteries but this book about a rich, decadent Florida family had no mystery and little action. An incest subplot was particularly icky. ( )

This was a stupid waste of time and I threw it away rather than expose anyone else to the plotless, pointless book. ( )
