It's long, but a page-turner and the surprises keep coming.  It's a book that haunts me.  I'll always wonder - what if that's what really happened? DeMille has the credentilals, so who knows?...

The Prima style can be worn to the office, not embarass me, and still not pinch my toes.  I'm so happy that some shoe makers are getting it....
