Summary:"Once again we are treated to a worm's-eye view of the chancre in the rose. This time it is the cosmetics industry, headed up by an ancient and formidable grande dame and staffed with a frightening assortment of wily self-seekers, headsmen and dupes; and if there is such a thing as justice in the expose game, beauty peddlers qualify as a target.
