Frannie Costello faces the murky complexities of life. It is 1961. She is sixteen, pregnant and terrified. Abortion is not a choice. Or is it? A controlling mother whisks her away from Baltimore? Away from Nicky Feola, her first love. Away to a darkened room festering with a shadowy aura of shame. Frannie survives but follows the unforgiving cycle. She falls into an abusive marriage. When all hope is nearly gone she reads a newspaper clipping of the opening of a new. Las Vegas casino, THE ALLADIN. Courage leads her to abandon her husband. She escapes to the city of glitz and glamour. Could this city be the twentieth century's Babylon? Would this city be Frannie's demise?
