30,000 mornings

Inge, Finnish model cum photographer cum diarist on Manhattan life, roams the urban jungle of wintry New York surviving on a diet of sex and vodka. She and her fashion-photographer lover Hal mix with the mad, the bad and the beautiful at the parties, gallery openings and bars of the Upper East Side. But Inge's thoughts are buzzing with the disappearance of her fellow blonde Finn, Karen; she of the icy Nordic beauty and the world-famous nude centrespread, who went travelling to Morocco and never returned.
