Opis

Her newest book, Can Can-Kansas City's Last Era of Bets, Babes and Bombs, is the second in a four-part series based on Marie Wakefield's living-on-the-edge reality. Moving from a small Missouri town to work on Kansas City's Mob controlled, 12th Street party strip, required far more than Marie expected. Bikini Go-Go dancing? Sure, no problem. It seemed a timely opportunity for an uneducated twenty-year-old to save enough for a real home in West Palm Beach, Florida. A home where she and her two daughters could make a real start as a family...without interference. Dance until she saved enough money for the move, get the girls settled in, and enroll in beauty school. A simple enough plan. Until she met the man who helped run the Trap, the Mafia's illegal gambling joint and key meeting place. From the beginning, he had different plans for the pretty, clueless peckerwood. Can Can will also give readers an inside look at how some mothers and daughters, and wives along with mistresses, accept the normality of life within the Mob.
