BBC Radio 4 Extra - The Hot Kid, 3. Teddy's on 18th and Central

Fed up Louly decides to make a fresh start, with a new job and name.

Fed up waiting for a deputy marshal to take her dancing, Louly makes a fresh start, with a new job and name. Stars Luke Norris.

Fed up with waiting for Deputy Marshal Carl Webster to take her dancing, Louly has gone to Kansas City to make a fresh start, with a new job and new name. 

She arrives at the same time as Jack Belmont, who's fled Tulsa after shooting his partner and now plans to start robbing banks. Both soon come to the attention of local crime boss Teddy Ritz and it's not long before Carl has to bail them all out of trouble.

Elmore Leonard's enthralling criminal odyssey is set against the dusty, sun-kissed backdrop of Oklahoma and Kansas during America's Great Depression.

Starring Samantha Dakin and Lucian Msamati. 

Dramatised by Katie Hims.
