Set in Paris and Singapore (home of the Seven Deadly Goldfish), animated by a magnetizing set of off- beat characters, spiked with surprises and dizzying twists up to the very last words, Our Lady is a blend of The Perils of Pauline (crime! adventure! suspense!), Basic Instinct ( sex!), A Movable Feast ( romantic Paris!) and Marathon Man (running for your life!). Our Lady thrusts us into a world of international crime-sex-philosophy where almost no one and nothing are what they orginally seem: friends turn out to be enemies turn out to be friends, men-women, pawns-perpetrators, servants- masters. As we switch countries, continents and cultures in rapid succession, we discover who knew what before the other guy, who is not a guy at all! In the shadow of Paris's renowed Norte Dame Cathedral (Our Lady) Leslie Brittain, a 33 year-old American PR consultant living in the French capital is targeted as an unknowing pawn in a cash and drug-drenched plan, masterminded by the Police Commissioner himself, to blow up the Cathedral. Can her machine-gun mind, daring spirit, and smart-ass mouth save the day?
