Opis

Bewildered, angry and frustrated, one week before getting her Master's degree, Teresa Nugent, is a victim of date-rape and is pregnant but doesn't know who the father is. Sitting in a shielded corner of the "19th Hole Restaurant " at the golf course she overhears the club pro, Phil Stevens, and Dr. Randolph discussing the fact that two young girls were given GHB and raped at the club's Cinco de Mayo Festival. She realizes she also was given GHB and remembers "coming-to" sitting in her car in the driveway at home that night and wondering how she got there. Trying to decide whether to have an abortion or give the baby up for adoption, she plans to get away from her mother and 'religious-fanatic' father that she mentally calls The Little Dictator. After graduating, she tells her parents she's going to St. Louis on vacation, and leaves home planning not to return. Driving west instead of east, she settles in Reno, which The Little Dictator calls 'Sin City' and changes her name from Teresa Louise to Terrie Lee. She gets a job working in Harrah's Casino as a cashier. Little does she dream that one of the two men she meets and gets acquainted with is a murderer.
