[a bit of soiling to bottom edges of covers and top edge of text block, small gouge in lower edge of text block; jacket tanned at spine, otherwise clean and attractive]. Novel about "an elegant black prostitute whose beliefs about her profession are as startling as are her looks [who] has managed to establish respectability in a small house in a white community bordering on Watts. . It is only when the riots in Watts occur that Fiona must look behind the beige scarf so chicly tied beneath her chin and the silky clinging black raincoat that are her shields, to discover who she is and where she must stand." The author "happened to be working on a newspaper story near Watts at the time the riots broke out, [an] event which she witnessed at so close a range and about which she feels so deeply."
