Forget the pink cover. This is one tough hard-boiled novel. The story is about a young woman who's taken under the wing of a female mob boss. Abbott uses tough-guy language taken from old Chandler novels and gives it to these crime dames. A quick and exciting read. The book may be pink but the heart of it is black.
