Synopsis: On the Persian Gulf island of Belaj, British air-hostesses and Egyptian belly-dancers are working overtime to relieve oversexed citizens of their frustrations and petrodollars. One of the punters is murdered: whisky-soaked publisher Farouk whose randy wife Nayla is a niece of the local despot, His Highness Shaikh Khalid bin Khalifa al-Khazi. Newcomer Cass, an East London housewife, becomes a $500 hooker. Sammy-Jo, an American stewardess with page-3-girl boobs, and nerdy British banker Eddy are drawn into a plot by BARF (Belaj Armed Revolutionary Front) to assassinate Shaikh Khalid in a bizarre bedroom romp. What happens after the coup? Will it be the Dawn of Democracy - or "Whoops Apocalypse"? 'Witty, entertaining, raunchy and very well written.' Peter O'Donnell, creator of Modesty Blaise
