It's good to see that Leigh Redhead has not fallen into the category of a one hit wonder. Her first novel about sometime stripper Simone Kirsch (professional name, when dancing exotically, Vivien Leigh) PEEPSHOW was well received. Simone, presumably like her creator, dropped ecdysis as a living but Simone has adopted the profession of full time private investigator. Unlike Redhead, who lives in Brisbane, Kirsch went to live in Melbourne.
