In 1991, Jack falls in love with a beauty. Twenty-nine-year-old Jack Trexlor doesn't realize that his life has gone off the rails: tending bar at a topless club, getting too close to the dancers, and getting involved in drugs. He thinks he's living the good life. But when a mysterious stranger stops into the club on a hot September evening, Jack's world gets suddenly turned upside down. Now, Jack works desperately to put together one last big deal to buy a new life for himself and his favorite dancer, but the dealers at this level don't mess around or give second chances, not even for a poor fool who has been double-crossed and betrayed. If you like noir stories where a troubled hero fights the world to get justice for a girl, all while battling his own demons and deficiencies, you'll love the page-turning adventure of The Dancing Queen. The Jack Trexlor books can be read and enjoyed in any order.
