In the first part of the 21st century, Natalie McLennan was making thousands of dollars an hour—as one of the highest paid call girls in New York City. Working for New York Confidential escort service, the Montreal-born woman—working under the name "Natalia"—made headlines when she was profiled in a 2005 issue of New York magazine. In this darkly funny and surprisingly poignant memoir, McLennan tells her full story for the first time. A cautionary tale about a bright, confident young woman who sells her future for easy money and glamour, The Price takes readers inside the world of the twenty-five-year-old girl that one publication labeled "The $2,000-An-Hour Hooker."
