Summary

As a sassy young woman used to drinking, partying, blogging, and shopping her way through dreary London, the call of a glamorous, tax-free career in sunny Dubai just couldn't go unanswered. Over the course of two years, an entire city funded by oil wealth rises from the dust around her as Becky rapidly scales the career ladder. She becomes a celebrity editor in a land where sex definitely does not sell and spends most nights in a five-star blur of champagne luxury. Dubai offers everything, but things soon get messy-not least because a wealthy Arab man makes her his mistress. Skinny-dipping, affairs, gay parties-Wicks soon discovers just how easy it is to break the law in Dubai! Wicks lifts the burqa from the razzle-dazzle and reveals some of the most scandalous goings-on in the world's fastest up-and-coming city of gold
