Julie Burchill is an English writer and columnist known for her provocative comments. Beginning as a writer for the New Musical Express at the age of 17, she has written for newspapers such as The Sunday Times and The Guardian. She is a self-declared "militant feminist". She has several times been involved in legal action resulting from her work. She is also an author and novelist, her 1989 novel Ambition being a bestseller, and her 2004 novel Sugar Rush being adapted for television.
Light but moderately entertaining sort of spy story with lots of style/lifestyle references. Some tricksy wordplay got a bit annoying; it seems to be a substitute for real substance link turning out soundbites. A few sexy scenes but none really realistic and the storyline, as you might imagine, is full of holes. Good book to entertain for a couple of hours on a beach (as I did).
