The Beach Girls
Sure, Leo Rice was a nice guy... But why did he choose our beach? He could have gone ten miles up the strip and all of us could have lived happily ever after -- with no questions asked. But Leo Rice did ask questions and now it seemed to us that we were dirty. That our drinking, our love-making, and our forgotten pasts were evil. We had told ourselves that we were modern, free women until Leo Rice came along. Unitl the twisted emotions and buried hatreds ended in brutal murder.
