DESPERATE BLONDE

Marta Selfron made a stupid mistake and married young. How was she to know that Vernon Cashion was a bully, and that his domineering mother would threaten to kill her! She got out of that relationship pretty damn quick, but to do so she had to come up with a grand, which she "borrowed" from her employer. To make matters worse, she naively confessed to the Cashions what she had done to come up with the divorce money. Now they're sucking her dry with blackmail money. And that's when she meets Dirk Delgar, a private investigator that might just be her savior-if she can avoid telling him about her own crimes.

DUNGAREE SIN

Binnie Riordan is hooked up with Mick Fogarty, second in command of the Red Rovers. She wants to be top Deb, but she's up against crazy Veronica, who may be chicken at heart, but is still in charge. So she needs to enlist Vince Kirby, the top dog, if she wants to get anywhere. She's already got Sugar Fernandez and Midge Daly in her corner. She and her fellow Debs are a ruthless group, unafraid to take out a stray drunk and roll him for his currency. But there's fat, lecherous Officer Yates to watch out for, and hostile gangs like the Dusters and the Happy Jacks to avoid. It's a kill-or-be-killed world, and Binnie is determined to get her slice of it.
