Kindlynn, a novella, takes the reader into the world of Louisiana's infamous Bossier Strip, Babylon on the Red, that was a gateway to sin, sex, music, drink and fun 'n games during the 1960s. The bright, neon-flushed nightlife also proved a gateway to white slavery. Micky Longstreet flees an abusive family only to be forced into stripping and eventually prostitution in a deep, backwoods nightclub/bordello on the Louisiana-Arkansas line. She struggles to overcome a nightmare life in a fight against the darkest side of the club world and especially the attentions of an overweight, overbearing southern bigot. The man owns not only the club, but also the lives of his victims. Can Micky escape a fate of danger and despair or will she fall victim to his brutality and find herself, like so many before, fighting for breath, weighted down and sinking in the waters of a nearby bayou?This collection features the novella Kindlynn and six short stories by Dan Baldwin that feature fictional tales of the Deep South, Texas and New Mexico.
