The Flamingo Kid
Jeffrey Willis, a 1963 Brooklyn native, just graduated high school. He isn’t sure where his future lies. He is expected to attend college by his parents, but he finds the close knit family too much. When he is 16 years old, he gets a job as a Flamingo Beach Club employee. He meets Phil Brody who is a highly successful car dealer and gives him ideas on how to build his wealth. Phil is all Jeffrey wants: rich and popular. He’s also the greatest gin-rummy player in the club. Jeffrey is a young man who has a relationship with Carla Samson. But, Phil Brody discovers something that makes him a flawed person. –garykmcd
