Isadora Rampling

ISADORA RAMPLING is the direct descendent of a selkie and a charming but ruthless pirate who suffered a fatal encounter with cannibals just after burying a fabulous treasure. As he had tattooed the map on his pecs, it was irretrievably lost, dooming his luckless heirs to gold-digging, ill-advised wagers on theatrical stunts, fleeting fame as celebrated courtesans, and lasting infamy as Wall Street bankers. Isadora was forced to become a belly dancer in a Turkish restaurant to pay for the Moët. And the yacht. These days, she sails the high seas in search of erotic adventures, stud muffins with sea-legs, a bit of bondage, and a ghost ship anchored off a lagoon in the Kiribati atolls. She can be found sunning and scribbling on deck, or communing with a harem of seals, wearing only a few strands of seaweed in her hair. True story.
