- Summary:
- Aubrey Lyle is better known by her stripper name, Aisling, at the Naughtyland Club where she works. Asked by her friend and transvestite co-worker, Jossie, to find out whether the new girl is an undercover cop, Aubrey pays her a visit. Shockingly, she finds Cherry strangled and the apartment ransacked. As Aubrey digs deeper, she learns that Cherry was unionizing sex workers, and somebody wanted that stopped. Now Aubrey knows too much and may hold key evidence implicating the murderer. With her lively roommates as confidantes and sidekicks, she insists on following the clues, wherever they lead. This vivid roller coaster story about the Tenderloin district of San Francisco, and what it takes for a woman to make a bit of money, is not only a solid mystery, but an astute account of life as a sex worker.
