"That Kings Cross can be a dangerous place is a given but it can also be enticing for all the wrong reasons. It can be sinister in a subtle way, when its louche charm and cavalier attitude to society's moral code seduce the unwary by cultivating an aspect of your personality no-one, not even you, suspected was curled up inside the darker recesses of your mind."

Louis Nowra Kings Cross- a biography 2013 pg 75
