Are Snakes Necessary? by Brian Depalma
"It's like having a new Brian De Palma picture." - Martin Scorsese, Academy Award-winning director FROM THE DIRECTOR OF SCARFACE AND DRESSED TO KILL -- A FEMALE REVENGE STORY When the beautiful young videographer offered to join his campaign, Senator Lee Rogers should've known better. But saying no would have taken a stronger man than Rogers, with his ailing wife and his robust libido. Enter Barton Brock, the senator's fixer. He's already gotten rid of one troublesome young woman -- how hard could this new one turn out to be? Pursued from Washington D.C. to the streets of Paris, 18-year-old Fanny Cours knows her reputation and budding career are on the line. But what she doesn't realize is that her life might be as well...
"It's like having a new Brian De Palma picture" - Martin Scorsese, Academy Award-winning director "Brilliant, lurid, twisty fun...compulsively readable and fiendishly constructed." - David Koepp, screenwriter of Jurassic Park "One of the world's greatest filmmakers has helped produce a fast-moving page turner, breathlessly paced...irresistible for any De Palma fan." - Bret Easton Ellis, author of American Psycho
