This enthralling novel is a remarkable Psychological study of a Prostitute. Set against the picture-making industry of Hollywood, the story revolves round two people, Clive Thurston, who has cheated his way to fame, and Eve, an utterly worthless woman who lives on men. 'Eve' is a bigger subject and a deeper view of life than Mr. Chase has ever before given us. His vigorous, unconventional style is, as always, supremely adapted to the recounting of such a swift-moving dramatic account of human conflict.
