Getting out is like a weird dream, and the streets of the City are a muddle of sensations pooling around her. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFirst there's the bustle--everybody busy with mysterious businesses--an amplifying racket of choices. Staggering out onto the late night streets of the City, Reno ends up at the infamous Istanbul Club: dim lights, Arabic music and the sensual Su'ad dancing. Music, booze, babes and drugs: what more could a felonious girl want? \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eShe encounters Huntington, the poisonous charmer who lives above the Club--perverse and powerful in the way only the wealthy can be. Eddie, the underage bartender, is happy to chemically enhance every waking moment. Slowmotion, the sound light technician, huge and darkly mysterious, has connections to people and places that Reno didn't even know existed. Slowmotion's elegant friend, Poppy, offers mental transport to realms beyond Xanadu; in her little valise there's everything necessary for any trip, including the hallucinogenic \"Teeth of Idi Amin.\" \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe owner of the club, handsome gambler Sinclair, hires Reno to waitress. Grumbling, drinking, snarling, and swearing, Reno bangs her way through everyone else's complicated plans, entangling herself in a byzantine labyrinth of betrayal, revenge, general mayhem, and yes, good times.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSin Soracco\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eLow Bite\u003c\/i\u003e.
