JOHN GARVEY | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Zeph's new in town. He finds a room in West Hollywood and shares the house with two ultrasleek gender illusionists who style themselves after classic movie goddesses Lauren Bacall and Rita Hayworth. A private investigator named O'Keefe stops by, and Zeph finds himself drawn into an investigation surrounding the disappearance of a porn-studio owner and one of his stars. The missing porn star is, not by coincidence, the boyfriend of one of Zeph's new housemates. Another investigation involves the drug-related murder of a club kid. O'Keefe is one of the suspects because he was the last person seen with the victim. A large, menacing drag queen, who took the rap for the murder of a dancer at a gay club in Miami, is now out on parole and is trying to track down her accomplice. She hires O'Keefe to find a "lost love." The series continues in Book 2.
