Saucy Jack and the Space Vixens

In a future universe consumed by eco-wars and the persecution of plastic, a notorious planet, Frottage III, offers refuge to the depraved in the shape of Saucy Jack's - a dark and seedy cabaret club presided over by the alluring and charismatic Saucy Jack himself.

Here a vagabond cast of cabaret artistes perform twice nightly for a clientèle who, largely, are far more interested in their own clandestine affairs than the entertainment laid on by their host, the alluring and enigmatic Saucy Jack himself.

However, all is not well at Saucy Jack's - danger lurks in every corner. Jack's cabaret performers are being picked off one by one by a ruthless serial killer - the only clue is the heel of a sequined Sling back thrust into the chest of each victim. But, in true showbiz fashion, the show must go on!
