Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Velvet Underwood doesn't know much about her father, Diamond Jim, other than Mama's relentless bragging that every woman in town desired him, he smelled like hard work and pine, and she was conceived in the back of his Cadillac.
