The young men "went over [to the garage] and the girl went home." Goldkette recorded for the Victor Talking Machine Company, whose musical director, Eddie King, objected to Beiderbecke's modernistic style of jazz playing.

Beiderbecke "lived very briefly […] in what might be called the servants' entrance to art", Ferguson wrote. In it, he refers to a breakdown that preceded Beiderbecke's stint in rehab, writing: It seems all too obvious that Beiderbecke's near fatal attack resulted not from prolonged use of alcohol, but rather sudden and acute poisoning caused by substances of far greater toxicity.

Beiderbecke and Trumbauer joined Goldkette's main band at the Graystone Ballroom in Detroit in 1926. On April 22, 1921, a month after he turned 18, Beiderbecke was arrested by two Davenport police officers on an accusation that he had taken a five-year-old girl named Sarah Ivens into a neighbor's garage and committed a lewd and lascivious act with her—a statutory felony in Iowa. When Ahola introduced himself, Beiderbecke famously stated "Hell, I'm only a musical degenerate". (See, for instance, the New York Times, "Defend Poisons Put into Alcohol," August 11, 1926.).

Her story of the doomed trumpet player Rick Martin was inspired, she wrote, by "the music, but not the life" of Beiderbecke, but the image of Martin quickly became the image of Beiderbecke: His story is about "the gap between the man's musical ability and his ability to fit it to his own life.
