Pulp Fiction based on True Story of Australian Underworld
Down on his luck, a man takes a job woking for an urban brothel / escort agency as a driver. Working nights, 7pm to 7am he transports prostitutes | whores | call girls | hookers | working girls to and from their clients, ensuring that they return with the proper payment.
Soon, with many of the girls also drug users, he accumulates the phone numbers of the city's major dealers and seeks to advance in the profession - from driver to pimp to dealer to pornographer. In short time, hyper-sexed and turned on by the company and the drugs, he sets out to make the cuty night his own!
The first of Blake Ryder's escort driver tales, this is the closest to personalized counter-culture journalism in the manner of Hunter S. Thompson: it profiles the illegal Adelaide, South Australian escort agency industry and the lifestyle and earning of the junkie whore who occupy its lowest rung. Unflinching, harrowing and shocking in its social implications, The Forbidden Economy brings the moral-man-in-an-amoral-world pulp fiction of classic hardboiled authors Raymond Chandler, Dashiell Hammett, James M. Cain and Mickey Spillane into a world where pornography is virtually normalized and the sex trade is all that is allowed those who fall through the system.
