In the world of securities law, there is no attorney more capable than the brilliant and beautiful, Susanna Sloane. After practicing law in New York City for many years, she moves to her firm’s Palm Beach office, where she continues her practice until a confrontation forces her to resign and then establishes her own firm. Susanna, a widow, has been living with her late husband’s best friend, Larry Warner. She is introduced to the famous attorney and sports agent Rusty Byers, and undertakes the representation of several of his clients, players on the New York Yankees, who have lost money through stockbroker misconduct. She discovers that the Russian Mafia secretly controls Superior Securities, the brokerage firm she is suing. Susanna finds herself attracted to Rusty and engages in a secret affair with him. A new client, Bernie Taub, also has a case against Superior Securities. What he doesn’t tell Susanna is that he is a member of the Russian Mafia, and that his winery in France is a front for cocaine and weapons smuggling. In an effort to influence the World Series on behalf of the Mafia, Taub kidnaps her and whisks her away to his villa in the south of France, where she remains his sexual prisoner. She is rescued by the FBI, testifies at Taub’s trial with its bizarre ending, authors a book, and ultimately becomes a national celebrity.
