| Summary: | "Every morning, newspaper columnist and feminist lesbian activist Tyler Jones walks her dog in the park across the street from her home in San Francisco. It's a quiet. uneventful amble until the dog, appropriately name Agatha Christie, discovers a body. Tyler assumes she's an innocent bystander until she's informed that the victim was a man who once threatened her life. Now that the San Francisco Police Department thinks she's a prime suspect, Tyler enlists the aid of her good friend, Mary Sharon Andrew, and her newspaper contacts as well as relying on her own investigative abilities to solve the murder of Dr. Jason Judd. On the surface, Dr. Judd's family members seem the most obvious suspects: a wife who's been beaten for years; a daughter who's probably the victim of her father's sexual abuse as well as physical abuse; and a son whose method of survival is to indulge in equally abusive activities. Tyler finds herself facing a possible moral dilemma: can she, does she even want to, reveal a killer that she might feel was justified?"--Page [4] of cover. |
