THEY CALLED HER THE VIRGIN TRAMP...SHE WAS A LURID LITTLE FRONT PAGE HOMICIDE. A MYSTERY SWEETHEART WITH SECRETS TO TELL ON THEM ALL. THE PIMPS, PROMOTERS, HOOKERS, AND HOODS. MAYBE EVEN ON TWO BROTHERS, TOM AND DES SPELLACY-A COP AND A PRIEST. TOM WANTS ANSWERS. DES WANTS POWER. BUT THE VIRGIN TRAMP IS STILL CLAIMING VICTIMS, EVEN IN DEATH. ONE OF THOSE BOOS YOU RECOMMEND WHEN SOMEONE AS YOU WHAT TO READ, STATES "LOS ANGELES TIMES"
