A vividly written account of whores and thieves in Paris, covering all sorts of incidental details (like having contacts with a travel agency to find out when busloads of American GI's might pull up somewhere), one seldom thinks about. There's a King here, his main squeeze, other girls who come along, many encounters between the whores, the pimps and the customers, and, at the end, a bit of a falling out, where the pimp gets his. Nicely done and almost readable just for the plot.
