Product Details


Product Description

From Booklist

Kelly Henry disappears, leaving behind a diary that accuses her psychotherapist, Moira Ericson, of sexual abuse. When Ericson's father and stepmother hire redhaired lesbian PI Maggie Garrett to find Kelly and clear Moira, the trail leads to a sleazy flophouse in San Francisco's Mission district, a health food store run by a rapacious manager with shady secrets, and conflicting stories about Kelly and her many different personalities. Besides sorting out the varying views of Kelly, Maggie must cope with her own conflicts about working for clients who seem to be scheming against each other on the sly and with her sympathy for the vanished accuser. A strong secondary action here, one that features erotic fireworks, is Maggie's burgeoning relationship with Diana Hoffman, a sergeant in SFPD's homicide division. Strongly plotted, well-paced, and erotic, the second Maggie Garrett mystery makes us hope for a long series of successors. Whitney Scott

Maggie Garrett is a struggling PI in San Francisco. Her best friend keeps trying to set her up with every single woman she knows and her best friend's partner has recommended her to psychologist's attorney. The psychologist is being accused of sleeping with one of her patients. First the attorney hires her, then her father wants to pay to get the information first, then the step-mother wants to pay to get the information first. She agrees to all of them and then the dance begins. Taylor reveals each piece of evidence to the reader as her character finds them. Nothing is what it seems to be. Garrett goes undercover looking for the perpetrator only to find other crimes being committed. Things become even more complicated when murder is committed. Now Garrett is searching for a murderer! Garrett is an interesting and finely drawn character. Her friends are just like yours and mine. If you like mysteries cozy and with a lesbian PI, this is the series for you.
