A gay barâs business is getting killedâalong with its clienteleâin the final novel of this beloved mystery series set in early-eighties Boston.
Daniel Valentine is Bostonâs most fabulous gay bartender. Clarisse Lovelace is his straightâyet gloriousâpal and business partner. Together they run Lovelaceâs bar. And also, when necessary, solve the occasional murder.
Lovelaceâs bar, once the darling of Bostonâs gay brigade, is losing money like crazyâmostly because someone keeps leaving dead bodies around. The cops are, unsurprisingly, not interested in the gay communityâs problems. Good thing Valentine and Lovelace know a thing or two about catching killers.
