Interesting story about a Skin Worker in Las Vegas who involved herself in the work part time to pay for college while she was getting her degree and continued after graduation and acquiring her private eye's license because the money was so good. Her good friend and former Skin Worker (Rachael) came to town after blowing a fortune she inherited when her husband was killed. Her gambling problem left her in debt to the mob and she was facing the prospect of having to repay her debt on her back. The prospect of proving the prime but, acquitted suspect guilty in a civil trial was the only pleasant prospect for Rachael to extract herself from the debt to the mob. Raven, (the skin dancing P.I. and friend to Rachael) took on the charity case as a way to help her broke but, well meaning friend with payment as a contingency upon winning the civil case. Rachael's Lawyer just happened to be a regular customer of Raven's so the whole case stayed in the family. What Raven lacks in experience and detective skills he more than makes up for in terms of gall and unlimited nerve, walking into danger without a second thought. She also has a cadre of friends willing to help the eyeful P.I. with her escapades. The characters and the look at a different side of life and a refreshing set of attitudes that doesn't condemn willing workers. Take the time to enjoy a feisty refreshing character and her stable mates.
