It is 2008 when two innocent bystanders stumble onto a gruesome scene. A girl lies in the road, barely recognizable but alive. The dead body of a man rests a short distance away. The girl's beloved dog, Pepe, is injured but devotedly guarding her. After Maria and Balke call for help, the girl is transported to the hospital where her identity remains a mystery. Raja Abdul Aziz is not a policeman, but instead, a man blessed with a mind that never forgets anything he sees or hears. When he is approached by two policemen who ask for his help solving the shocking case, he unwittingly unravels the story of Helena, a spoiled, thirteen-year-old heiress who first killed the kidnapper who violently attacked her and her dog, murdered his partner, and then was raised in secret by her rescuers to hide her identity. As more information rises to the surface, Aziz's probe unfortunately leads to tragic circumstances as he unwittingly seals Helena's doom. In this mysterious tale, a savant detective called upon to investigate a mass murder uncovers a surprising chain of events that ultimately decides a young woman's fate.

Helena Rubinstein's remarkable life--from the inception of her beauty empire to the legacy she left behind--is celebrated in this comprehensive book that retraces her inspiring story. Helena Rubinstein was the first to establish the link between beauty and science, at a time when makeup was worn only by actresses and prostitutes. Progressive and a feminist, she made beauty accessible, using cosmetics as a means of emancipation. A daring pioneer, she founded a world-famous cosmetics empire with intelligence, courage, intuition, and business acumen. Her visionary marketing and publicity campaigns secured her brand's success, and she left behind one hundred branches in forty countries and 30,000 employees. Until the end of her life, the world's richest woman remained faithful to her humble Polish‒Jewish roots and proud of her Yiddish accent. This illustrated biography recounts Rubinstein's life and legacy--the path to building her empire, her extensive art collection, her fascination with fashion and jewelry, and her groundbreaking achievements in launching the modern beauty revolution.
A selection from the legendary makeup mogul's African art collection, with new research and imagesWith her business acumen and ever-fresh sense of style, it is no wonder that Polish-American businesswoman Helena Rubinstein's (1872-1965) was once one of the cosmetics industry's most powerful moguls. Called "Madame" by those who worked with her, Rubinstein rose to global fame as a result of her wildly successful cosmetics empire, which she orchestrated from the inside out to great success even under the economic threat of the Great Depression. Outside of her entrepreneurial endeavors, Rubinstein pursued philanthropy and art collection, becoming an influential patron of the arts and arbiter of taste. The vast assortment of pieces, ranging from designer furniture to historical artifacts, was particularly notable for its African holdings in addition to its lot of Oceanic, Indonesian and pre-Hispanic art. H l ne Joubert, head of the African heritage unit at the Mus e du quai Branly in Paris, led a long-term investigation into Rubinstein's collection, succeeding in identifying and documenting nearly half of the 400 artifacts, 65 of which are reproduced in this volume, including Kota and Fang reliquaries, expressive masks from the Ivory Coast and the "Bangwa Queen" statuette made famous in the West by photographer Man Ray. Madame's Collection is an evocative testament to Rubinstein's discerning eye for beauty across history and culture, as well as a fascinating look into a varied selection of art from beyond the Western world.

Helena und Paris. Eine dramatische Liebesgeschichte. Die G tter spielen bei dieser Beziehung eine gro e Rolle. Beide Menschen kannten einander nicht und wurden quasi als Spielball durch die G tter zueinander gebracht. Dass durch diese von den G ttern fast kann man sagen "bewerkstelligte" Liebe der Trojanische Krieg entstanden ist, konnte niemand vorher ahnen.
