BOLT WAS A WANTED MAN...WANTED BY HIS FAMILY, THE LAW—AND BY A WHOLE LOT OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN!

San Francisco should be big enough and rich enough to support another bawdy house-especially one being run by Jared Bolt. But getting girls to staff it seems to be a problem...

Bolt's search takes him from the drawing rooms and bedrooms of the City's top society into an underworld of white slavery. All Bolt wants is some women interested in steady work and a share of the profits. The slavers, though, have other ideas, and the girls don't count for much in their plans. Figuring free enterprise applies to the women as well as the men running them, Bolt makes his move against the powerful slavers, leading to a shoot-out that leaves San Francisco quaking...and some grateful girls doing a bit of shaking for Jared Bolt as well.
