Story line is following the complicated life of a hooker in the NYC redlight district. the book was writen in the 50/60's.
Behind this memorable story of the turning point in the lives of two lovers, one risen from the gutter and the other unashamedly drifting towards it, lies the ugly background of the seamy side of New York life. Maryann Flood, a 'model' at 79 Park Avenue, has been arrested on charges of procurement, bribery and blackmail. Mike Keynes is conducting the prosecution but fate seems to have played against him in offering the long sought-after chance of advancement in his career, through the trial of the woman he loves and who loves him. A harrowing story of the love of two people trying to bridge the gap between the law and the New York underworld, under the shadow of the sordid reign of prostitution.
All I will say is Harold Robbins never disappoints. Only because my friend told me she loved every book written by Robbins and insisted I read them. She did not stir me wrong.:-)
