Lily Cooper

Her past life? Unmentionable. Her present life? Unpardonable.

It’s 1950s Chicago. Magazine writer Peter Farmer is hired to spend a week with Lily Dexter, the hottest and richest stripper in the city, and ghostwrite a racy, autobiographical expose under her name that will be published in a national magazine. But his job goes beyond that. He needs her to share all the alluring details about her that remain hidden... even when she’s naked on stage. What he reveals, when he can force himself to see past her fantastic body and resist her magnetic sexuality, is a frightened woman whose desperate search for love drove her into the arms of men and women...and into the world of high-priced prostitution. But her dark past still shadows her, even under the bright lights of the stage, and he may be the only one who can save her from being destroyed by it.

A urban noir classic, back in print for the first time in over 65 years.
