Our Lady of the Pink Pussycat

A year after the devastation of Hurricane Katrina, Rain, a stripper at The Pink Pussycat, a dive bar on Bourbon Street, drags her tired body home through the sweltering streets of New Orleans. Burdened by a mountain of debt left by her deadbeat husband, Rain wonders how she'll survive. But her life as a down-and-out stripper changes in ways she never could have imagined when she dances for Hal, a dejected veteran paralyzed during the Iraq War.When Hal makes some outrageous claims about her lap dances, word of Rain's "gift" starts to spread quickly. Soon she finds herself locked in a battle with jealous dancers, an ambitious local televangelist and her own disbelief. But Rain's life isn't the only one to be turned upside down. Hal's wife Marilyn, a devout member of the Faith & Love Ministry, is torn between her love for her husband and her faith when confronted with the unbelievable.Our Lady of the Pink Pussycat is a story of deep and profound friendship, of loyalty and betrayal, of losing and finding one's way......or maybe it's just about a really good lap dance.
