Roadside Night - Paperback

Buck is a young ex-G.I. who owns a small motel and beer joint outside Los Angeles. He doesn't consider himself to be particularly bright or even anything special. So when the redhead in the pale green dress walks in and asks for a coke, he doesn't expect to see her again. After all, he's already got a girlfriend, Joyce, a sweet kid...

But the redhead returns. Three days later she comes by again, and this time she spends the night. Buck is hooked. Sylvia is everything he ever wanted in a woman. Then she tells him about her employer. He's a cruel guy, a leech. He's launders money and has Sylvia deliver it. And she knows how Buck can take him. Buck knows he should get out now... but there's no turning back. He's hooked.
