English
By (author): Christopher Finch
In May of 1968, New York City is broke and on the skids, and private eye Alex Novalis is hard up for gigs. So when hes offered a case from wealthy construction mogul Gabriel Kravitz, he cant refuse.
Kravitzs eighteen-year-old daughter Lydia has gone missing. Though shes presumed to be with Jerry Pedrosian, the radical middle-aged artist and known womanizer shed been sleeping with, there are few clues. Information is hard to come by; everyone seems to be hiding something. And then theres Andrea Marshall, Lydias miniskirted and vinyl-booted best friend, who Novalis is deeply distrustful ofand unfortunately attracted to.
But as Novalis traverses the city, tracking Lydia from scummy artists lofts in pre-gentrified SoHo to luxury penthouses overlooking Central Park, hell face threats deadlier than any he signed on for.
Smart and sophisticated, Good Girl, Bad Girl provides a rare, fascinating snapshot of late 1960s New York Citya glimpse into the forbidden sex, politics, art, drugs, and counterculture violence that ran rampant in its once gloriously gritty streets.
