"e;You dumb cunt, do you think I'm in business for kicks? This is a business like any other. When you borrow, you pay back. The fact that you're my first cousin doesn't mean shit to me."e;
is the initial conversation in this vintage novel between Walter Morola and his cousin Florrie.
"e;Walter Morola had been Florrie's last hope, two months before. She had been out of work for three months, and both the electric company and the phone company were going to turn off their services because she hadn't been able to pay her bills. She had gone to Walt, her first cousin on her mother's side, hoping he would loan her the money simply because she was family. She intended paying it back as soon as she got a job. But Walt was a loan shark, and when he loaned her the money, it wasn't as a cousin, but as a businessman, expecting seven dollars back for every five he'd loaned her at the end of the first week. And he'd loaned her five hundred dollars."e;
As the story unfolds, Walter blackmails his cousin — the mother of two teenage daughters — into moving into his house and taking care of his household. She must be at his beck and call.
It quickly became clear to the mother that Walter would not stop at her two daughters either, and that he even considered them part of the deal in a way.
