By 23, the supremely confident Mary Jackson-Peale had become one of the most influential theatrical agents on London&#39;s prestigious West Side. But her self-indulgent lifestyle, which included a string of bi-sexual relationships, endless cocktails of booze and drugs, and the accidental manslaughter of her sex-craved boss, made her a felon on the run.<br><br>To escape Scotland Yard&#39;s dragnet, Mary created a new identity and fled to America with no money, no contacts, and the guilt that her mother&#39;s partner had been imprisoned for her indiscretions. Slowly but surely, she overcame these obstacles &ndash; and a few new ones &ndash; to regain her mojo and become one of Broadway&#39;s most sought-after theatrical agents. Now, 37, and at the top of her theatrical game, she fell deeply in love with a handsome, romantic Venetian vintner. Ironically, her world would collapse with a bang that could be heard around the world.<br>
