About this deal

But in Polo poor old Rupert has been tamed by his irritatingly perfect young wife taggy("pictures of perfection make me sick and wicked" - jane austen), and is no longer any fun, he just drools over her all the time. It is extremely hard to find any liking at all for Perdita - her every action is driven by her desperate need for attention. She started her career as a journalist and wrote numerous works of non-fiction before writing several romance novels, the first of which appeared in 1975.

But before she had time to grow up, Ricky's life exploded into tragedy, her mother sustained the shock of a lifetime, and Perdita turned into a brat who only loved her horses - and Ricky France-Lynch.Nicknamed El Orgulloso, 'the proud one', he had a large crumbling estate, a nine-goal polo handicap and a beautiful manipulative wife who was fair game for anyone with a chequebook.
