Lovely, and well written, a nice historical piece that isn't too heavy handed with historical back-story.
I hope that we will see more very soon. - Rocky - Dec-13-2008

| Red Wolverton is, in her own words, a bad-tempered bulldyke with the manners of a teamster. In 1920's Boston her attitude, dress and choice of lover, let alone her position as the cities only female Private Investigator, can only cause trouble. Evadne Lannis, widowed socialite from the best of the Boston families, has always been considered a little odd, but her decision become unpaid secretary to the notorious Wolverton causes even those that previously backed her philanthropic good-deeds to doubt her sanity. Together the apparently mismatched pair combat both supernatural and human foes and their own and others prejudices. In the process they solve two murders, uncover a mystery with a sting in its tale and, perhaps most surprisingly of all, form an unexpected friendship. [Removed for publication.] | |
