Thirty-four years ago, Harold Robbins enthralled millions of readers with The Carpetbaggers, the most popular novel ever written about the early days of Hollywood. Now, in The Raiders, he continues his phenomenal story. Tormented by dreams of his late father, Jonas Cord vowed his relationship with his own illegitimate son, Bat, will be different. But the Cord family conflict continues as Jonas moves his billion-dollar enterprise to Las Vegas - taking on the mob, and taking into bed a beautiful woman with a secret past, and through it all his son and daughter vie to exceed him in every way - in and out of bed. The Raiders the most explosive, hard-hitting novel yet from the world's favourite bestselling novelist.

Sexy, outrageous and irresistible, Tycoon is Harold Robbins at his rip-roaring best. Jack Lear rises from a modest Jewish background to take on the WASP world, but never quite feels he's succeeded in his ambition to be accepted as one of them. Making his fortune as a pioneering radio and television broadcaster and founding a landmark network isn't enough - nor is the money, fame and women who go with it. He continues to hunger for what he cannot have. Here is a tale that only Harold Robbins could tell: of Jack's torrid relationship with his first wife, a WASP social heiress; of his affairs with everybody from chamber maids to duchesses; of his second marriage to a world-class beauty and society figure; and ultimately of his life-long struggle to make his network No. 1, and to give it a sense of class that sets it apart from all the others.

A sequel to "The Betsy". Loren Hardeman I is alive and well, but power over the Bethlehem Motor empire is now passing to his grandson. Loren Hardeman III has innate cunning, but lacks decisiveness. When outsider Angelo Perino challenges him, his grandfather invites Perino back into the firm.

Jerry Cooper of THE PREDATORS is back to launch his new empire of intimate women's apparel. He now has a son, Les Cooper, a streetwise young lawyer who slowly uncovers the family's mob involvement, a secret which Jerry has desperately tried to conceal until he finds himself in need of a lawyer. Combining the grit of his early work with the glamour of his later novels, Robbins once again provides readers with a pantheon of street-raised hustlers and anti-heroes who would use their hard-won knowledge to claw their way up the ladder of success.

THE PREDATORS takes you on a wild odyssey through the gaudy and reckless life of Jerry Cooper: his struggle to survive in depression New York; his years in Europe during the war; his friends, wives and lovers; his life in organised crime and his entrance into the world of high-powered international business. Into the world of Plesscassier. The premier purveyor of vintage French spring water, its owner Jean Pierre Martine is a consummate rogue whose all-consuming greed is rivalled only by his unbridled sexual desires. But Plescassier is not yet the global colossus it may one day become. For all Jean Pierre's flair, the company lacks that single-minded individual who will propel it to its rightful place at the top of the international market. Jerry Cooper with his enormous appetites, financial genius and criminal past is such a person. As is Giselle, the former French courtesan, who is the driving force behind both Jerry and Jean Pierre, who inflames their ambition, their vanity, their destiny, their dream. And shares their bed.

Her Royal Highness, the Princess of Wales, was just an ordinary young woman when she was selected to be the Prince's bride and future queen. But she was deceived and betrayed before the honeymoon was over - and five months later, pregnant with the heir to the throne, she threw herself down a flight of stairs. And after suffering degradation and humiliation at the hands of her husband, the Princess took the ultimate revenge. To defend herself, the Princess reaches across the Atlantic and hires Marlowe James. Dubbed the "burning bed lawyer" by the news media because of her successful defence of women who kill their abusive husbands, Marlowe not only has to battle with barristers loyal to the Crown, but has to come to grips with her own feelings about a woman who was handed everything any woman would desire, and then threw it away. The explosive tale that will be exposed in the courtroom is one of jealous rage and unfulfilled desire, sexual deceit by one of the most powerful men on earth - and bloody revenge enacted by a woman scorned!
