Pocket Books #734; 2nd printing, 1950; binding is a bit loose, edge wear, hinge crease; It all started the day Pearl put on that tight red store-bought dress and came back from town with the sling pumps and the dime-store lipstick. Then Dode and Deck Cherry knew that their youngest daughter was a woman with ideas they had never dreamed about. They had seen plenty of trouble but it was Pearl who taught them what trouble really was. God Almighty had given her an enticing body and wicked ways to go with it. She had her pick of several men, and she acted without conscience to get what she wanted - but wickedness once let loose is hard to hold, and it struck back at Pearl herself before the tide of destruction had run its course.
