This is a strange book about Mariella Novotny, who (among other things) was an underage sex worker who had sex with JFK. But the story is much more interesting than that.

The book is interesting in that it peels back the curtain on a British underworld from the 1960s and 1970s. The author includes her own process in the reporting - we hear not only about Novotny but also about Pizzichini's attempts to chase down various threads of the story. This part was less interesting to me and served to kind of interrupt the historical narrative.
