Biography of famous lady racing driver "Mme Helle Nice" who stormed Europe in the 20s and 30s with her Bugatti GP cars after a career as an exotic dancer in Paris.
Quite a 'character' , this amazing lady was genuinely competitive in a male-dominated sport (oddly less-so back then that today!) this much acalimed book pulls few punches about her exitoic life which later included a great deal of mystery concerning her role in the second world war.
The reviewers loved it..
"spine-tingling" THE SUNDAY TIMES
