Gold Medal 889 Paperback Original (June 1959). First Printing. Cover Art by Barye Phillips
Backwoods Tramp by Harry Whittington
She knew what she wanted – a man to take her away from the dirt road and one-room shack she called home.
From the back cover:
GREEDY LITTLE SWAMP GIRL
She stood in the doorway of the shack and I saw how different she was from the other people I’d met in the swamp. She was looking for something; she wanted something and she would kill to get it. I shivered a little but I couldn’t pull my gaze away from her. She looked as though she’d just gotten out of a warm bed and wanted to go back to it – with me.
But her sleepy eyes, her full mouth and her lush body were lying. In a cold and calculating way she was already planning how she could use me to help her escape from the poverty and filth of her backwoods life.
