A nameless female narrates the story of her rise from accountant for a dive bar to the right hand of notorious femme fatale Gloria Denton, Queenpin of the underworld.
Set against a gritty noir backdrop, Abbott takes the reader along with her narrator as she leaves home to take on a new job and life with Gloria. Within weeks, she advances from small time criminal acts to money laundering at the racetrack.
When Gloria kills the narrator's boyfriend, she realises that it's only a matter of time and a game of wits if she is to get out unscathed, as Gloria seems to be looking to pin the murder on the narrator.
Rating 3/5
