Taxi Dancer

Follow an underprivileged girl coming of age in Los Angeles. Working at a ‘dime a dance club’ where she is witness to, among other things, a Chinese Mafia-style murder and finds herself running from the assassin, the police, and her own conscience. Rich in texture and diversity, this book will take you through the seedy underbelly of LA and into a world that, thankfully, most do not have the misfortune to see. She has a lot to gain but everything to lose and still finds time to discover a heart-wrenchingly tragic first love.
 
This book is based on the true story of a life not just gone wrong, but also born wrong and not for the faint or frivolous. Enjoy, laugh and cry but also learn and grow along with the heroine as she puts her life on the line for money and the love of her impoverished family.
