Plot summary
In 1954 Austin, Texas, Nadine Hightower works in a beauty salon and is in the middle of a messy divorce from Vernon Hightower, who owns the Blue Bonnet, a bar with no customers. Vernon is seeing Renée Lomax, a former Pecan Queen, and plans to marry her once the divorce is final. Nadine is pregnant with Vernon's baby and has not told him. She once posed for risqué photographs for Raymond Escobar, a photographer who promised to send them to Hugh M. Hefner, and now she wants them back. Returning to Escobar's studio, she hides in a back room while an intruder murders him, then slips out with a folder bearing her name. The photos are not inside it, so she asks Vernon for help, without telling him the whole story.
