The Book

Stilettos and Steel is based on the first-hand account of a crime-ridden life in San Francisco's notorious red light district: The Tenderloin. This book sheds light on the historical truth of this late 1960s underworld where female pimps, gangsters, and corrupt cops coexisted to survive the unjust laws and murderous streets of the TL. Read more.

A brilliant breakthrough novel. Gripping, gritty and one hundred percent original.

...wildly compelling characters and great plot turns. This has terrific movie potential.
