Richard is actually very principled and did the right thing. Will he stand up to the blackmail or will he be spineless?
The story is also told from the point of view of one of the sex slaves: Alexandra. Her story is what makes this book interesting.
Not too interested in the point of view of the “poor wife” who expected her life to be perfect and sees her world in black and white

Started our kind of trashy. Richard Chapman allows his younger idiot brother to have his bachelor party at his house. Stupid friend hires prostitutes to the party, who turn out to be Russian sex slaves.
One of the sex slaves kills one of her thug guards with a chef's knife from the kitchen.. takes his gun and then one of the sex slaves kills the other Russian guard with a gun.
