By the author of "Life-Size". All Christine wanted was a one-night stand, no complications to interfere with her career as a successful attorney. But ten months later, trapped in a relationship of obsessive intensity, she stands accused of a hideous crime.

"Wenn ich aufwache, bin ich leer, leicht, mein Kopf ist frei; ich möchte so bleiben, frei und rein, leichtfüßig, unbeschwert reisend. Das einzige, was mich am Essen interessiert, ist die Frage wie wenig ich brauche, wie stark ich bin, wie gut ich widerstehen kann." Josie - vor kurzem noch erfolgreiche BWL-Stundentin, jetzt auf 32 Kilo abgemagert - erwacht in einer Klinik, die sie vor dem Verhungern retten soll. Nur zögerlich akzeptiert sie die Therapie, die ihr schrittweise bewusstmacht, wie sehr sie Opfer erbarmungsloser Ideale geworden ist.
