Violence interrupts quiet reflection on tragedy when Donald and Timmy visit Washington to view the AIDS Memorial Quilt. Unexpected stories about a disgraced, conservative congresswoman, and a gay Lothario with designs on Strachey are catalysts for Donald's investigation into a memorial to a man who isn't quite as dead as he seems.(Originally published 1998.)

Strachey's Folly
I have been following Richard Stevensons' series staring Donald Strachey, private eye. The 'Folly' book was refreshing in that it had different locations from Albany, and therefore a different type of crime. The vignettes re Timmy, Donalds longstanding (do I mean longsuffering?) companion were amusing and realistic. I would recommend this book to others. I find that the authors style becomes more at ease, and flows well as the series develops. My only regret is that Mr Strachey appears to have become retired. I believe that there is room for more character development/more books. One centered more around Timmy, or a crime related to his distant past would be of interest, for example.
