She is now obsessed with wresting full control of the family fortune from Ariel, its rightful heir.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Earlier in her career, Frieda founded a ground-breaking social movement, its tenets embraced by Ivy League intellectuals, Hollywood glitterati, professional politicians and suburban housewives.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e She has since advanced her theories and is set to test them on an unsuspecting citizenry of a sleepy seaside art colony with the enthusiastic though exorbitantly expensive support of its City Council.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Nothing stands in Frieda's way, least of all an unstable daughter following her father's footsteps into an early grave, if necessary. No price is too high to pay when the greater good is at stake.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Thomas Jefferson warned \"experience hath shown that even under the best forms of government, those entrusted with power have, in time, and by slow operations, perverted it into tyranny.\"\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e The setting is a California coastal village in the throes of those perverted operations sped up exponentially.
