One Last Kiss
Mary Wilbon
Meet Cassandra Slick-a private investigator who knows that few pleasures in life can compare to a dry martini, a sexy blonde, and serving sweet justice on New Jersey-s meanest streets-While other little girls dreamed of growing up to be princesses, Cassandra Slick wanted to be Pam Grier in Foxy Brown, busting bad-ass criminals while yelling ‘Take that, you jive turkey!’ She got her wish, but at the request of her girlfriend Laura-the beautiful, blonde daughter of New Jersey’s wealthiest clam magnate-Slick has given up cop life to be a P.I.Now her former precinct captain, Frank DeStasio, has called on Slick’s help to clear a colleague, Tom Brandeal, accused of murdering a gorgeous black prostitute.
