The Mogul
by Chad Leslie Peters
The Mogul is compelling, graphic and brutally honest. It is an insider’s look behind the velvet curtains and velvet ropes of the real Hollywood entertainment industry. From the author of The Affair: A Four Week Experiment in Love, comes a Hollywood novel unlike any you have ever read. Even Jackie Collins wouldn’t have dared to tell this story. Four short blocks in the middle of the Beverly Hills business district comprise Rodeo Drive, ‘the Most Famous Shopping Street in the World. Here, it is possible to buy almost anything the mind can conjure – one-hundred-thousand-dollar dresses, two-hundred-thousand-dollar gold and diamond-encrusted watches, million-dollar vacations to every corner of the globe.
You can even buy love here, though it isn’t advertised and few know where to look for it. Abby Hanson wasn’t looking for love on the day she met Gilbert Seymour. She was looking for a fix, a shock of relief from the vengeful pain that coursed through her frail body for the umpteenth time that day. She had fallen asleep on the number 4 bus half an hour before, and had been awakened by the irate driver as the bus pulled up to the Rodeo Drive stop in Beverly Hills. Gilbert Seymour is the fabulously wealthy CEO of NorthAmerican Entertainment Industries, a Los Angeles-based conglomerate with controlling interests in motion pictures, television, and publishing.
His authority over the company is threatened by a rivalry from his angry, embittered children, who see an altogether different future for the company. Seymour is a world-class womanizer whose power and influence is coveted by women around the world. He has been married to Sarah Seymour for twenty years but their union is nothing but a miserable charade and he yearns for the divorce she doggedly refuses to grant. Sarah Seymour is disgusted and saddened by her husband’s sexual indiscretions. His behavior only strengthens her resolve to deny him the liberation he so desperately craves.
Abby Hanson is a twenty-seven-year-old nude dancer, occasional prostitute, and hopeless drug addict. She lives with the violent and unpredictable Rocky Cardozo, an unemployed alcoholic who exists off her occasional earnings. She meets Gilbert Seymour on the street outside a posh art gallery on Rodeo Drive and their lives become forever entangled when he takes a very personal – and very costly – interest in her tragic life.
