Stiletto is the true story of how this model schoolgirl became Zoe - initially a stripper, then a dancer and masseuse in an escort agency and later editor of a pornographic magazine. Her path was littered with middle-aged men, Afrikaans girls with exotic stage names, risky as well as downright dangerous sexual behaviour, and drugs. In Stiletto she reveals how she got there, what she learned from the experience, and how she survived it. Ultimately, the title is hopeful and shows that a fresh start is possible, even from the underworld of the sex industry.
