Description:

Hustling. Hell’s bedrooms. The blindingly real inside story of the netherworld of prostitution, the whole sordid subculture of brutal pimps, Mafia businessmen, profit-mad landlords, venal lawyers – and the women, from ghettos and suburbs, who sell their bodies on the street, at cheap hotels and expensive brothels, in the tawdry whirl of the world’s oldest profession.

“It took guts to write this book … there is a street toughness to the writing that is gripping.” – Newsday.

“A kind of Times Square peep show tour …” – Washington Post.

“realistic … brings the world of the prostitute to life, real life.” – Sacramento Bee.
