Das Buch ist sehr spannend und zeigt in genialer Weise auf wie eng vieles miteinander Verbunden ist. Niemand kann eine Handlung setzen ohne auf andere eine Auswirkung zu haben. Es zeigt auch genau wie die äußere Fassade und das innere Befinden oftmals konträr sind.

"No Man is an Island" unfolds the dramatic story of Sylvia Moran, the most beautiful woman and a celebrated actress in international cinema. At a grand charity gala in Monte Carlo, she utters the words, "No man is an island." Years later, during the peak of her success with a new film, she finds herself accused of murder. The motives behind her actions puzzle the prosecutor, judge, and defense attorney, especially as Sylvia insists on her own guilt. The narrative is revealed through the confessions of Philip Kaven, Sylvia's constant companion, who recounts the events leading up to the murder. Simmel masterfully maintains a gripping tension throughout, keeping readers on the edge of their seats from the first line to the last.
