When the law firm where she has worked for twenty years is closed due to a scandal linked to money laundering, her world collapses. Suspended from the professional register, unemployed and at risk of aiding and abetting, Francesca finds herself looking for a new job.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBy chance she enters a very particular recruitment agency and, following instinct rather than reason, accepts a job as an escort. From the initial embarrassment to the most daring experiences - ranging from the grotesque to the erotic - Francesca begins to discover a side of herself that she didn't know. Her inhibitions become weaker and, between encounters with men and women, group dates and extreme situations, the weight of guilt towards her family lightens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBut the fear of being too much free forces her to give up everything, returning to a more conventional job as a sales assistant in a boutique. However, the \"magnet\" that attracted her to this overwhelming world continues to exert its power, so much so that the ending suggests that the adventure could begin again.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA short novel that mixes eroticism, the grotesque and psychological introspection, telling the story of the transformation of an ordinary woman into an extraordinary protagonist\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrancesca is a lawyer, wife and mother: can such a woman be comfortable in the shoes of an escort and, even, interpenetrate her thoughts?
