Synopses & Reviews
Searingly honest, witty and engaging account of the life of a Florida junkie in the 1970s. "In my 13 years as books editor of the Sun-Sentinel, this is only the second time I have written a letter of recommendation for an unpublished manuscript.

Trish spends her time hustling and cheating to score. Heroin, dilaudids, whatever she can get. She travels from Florida to California and Mexico, hustling all the way, and always in the company of the wrong kind of men, whom she attracts wherever she goes. As her life spirals out of control and from one man to another, we discover there’s more to her addiction than the drugs.
