The heart of the novel is Narda Hart, a femme fatale who would use
her body as coinage to get whatever she wanted. Dirk Hart, An ex-cop,

burned by her too many times to trust her again. The pulpiest part of
the tale is the beginning as Dirk struggles with his passion and
frustration. When Narda is struck down in the street after he's turned
her away, Dirk has s determined to shake the city loose to find her
