<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Harry and Madeleine Winslow have been blessed with talent, money, and charm. Harry is a National Book Award-winning author.

But soon her reverence transforms into a dangerous desire, and she no longer remains one of their hangers-on.</p><p>A story of love, lust, deception, and betrayal as seen through the omniscient eyes of Maddy's childhood friend Walter, a narrator akin to Nick Carraway in <em>The Great Gatsby</em>, Indiscretion is an irresistibly sensual page-turner.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"An epic novel of friendship, betrayal and undying love ... outstanding"--<em>Kirkus Reviews</em><br><br>"Dubow has composed an addictive first novel that keeps the reader guessing with the turn of each page. . . .
