Lost Daughters: A Mickey Knight Mystery Book

Lambda Award-winning author J. M. Redmann continues her "fine, hard-boiled tale-telling" (Washington Post Book World) in a new novel featuring Micky Knight, "one of the most . . . complex female detectives in print today" (San Francisco Chronicle). Micky Knight, a bayou-bred and out-of-the-closet New Orleans private investigator, takes on the cases of a widowed mother looking for her daughter and a tough gay boy hunting for his biological mother. These cases stir in Micky a desire to search for her own mother who abandoned her when she was a young girl. When a young woman patient is murdered at her lover's clinic it seems to be just a bizarre coincidence. But then another woman, also a patient, is murdered, suggesting the frightening possibility that these events are more than just random chances. Even more alarming, the killer seems to know too much about the victims. As the killer circles ever closer to Micky --and the lost daughter she is trying to reconnect to her mother --the coincidences become a grisly reality: the one characteristic all the victims share is that they dare to love other women. Redmann once again keeps you at the edge of your seat. "A gutsy, fast-thinking PI in the Raymond Chandler tradition, Micky Knight is a detective mystery fans both gay and straight will want to see again and again." --BooklistRead More
