| book description |

â€œIâ€™m being followed,â€ she said. â€œI think he wants to kill me.â€ When a panicked young woman slips her hand into his in 1960s Chinatown, just before a knife-wielding stalker attacks, private eye Alex Novalis finds his cherished hard-boiled persona threatened by a romantic streak that has a habit of getting him into trouble. Sandy Smollett is triple troubleâ€”a stripper who comes on like the girl next door and has a way of bending the truth to suit any occasion. Novalis finds her irresistible. It doesnâ€™t help that her mobster boss, a sleazy politico, and an attorney brandishing an envelope stuffed with cash all warn Novalis that Sandy is strictly off limits. Things donâ€™t get easier when Novalis finds a dead man in her apartment, or when they both are kidnapped by homicidal thugs. Who is Sandy Smollett? For once she tells the truth when she tells Novalis, â€œIâ€™m the Girl from Nowhere.â€ Christopher Finchâ€™s sophisticated sequel to Good Girl, Bad Girl unfolds against the background of a volatile era of social upheaval.
