Book Description

Publication Date: April 29, 2001

Joel Levoy has not left New Orleans' French Quarter for over two years. Within its boundaries he fills all of his social, alcoholic and voracious sexual needs until one day, through a personal ad he meets the Kid, a heart-stopping 29-year-old with a shadowy past and a handful of aliases. Joel's life with the Kid takes an unexpected turn, as his good friends Troy, a neurotic, sex-crazed R.N. with Nordic good looks, and Suzy, a bisexual Cajun who suffers escalating harassment from her spurned lover Wilma, begin to worry about Joel's safety and sanity. Add an array of hustlers and a secretive, wealthy man known as "Goatee" to produce an explosive novel of sexual obsession and mystery.
