À propos de cet audio
After Emery Hazard loses his job as a detective in Saint Louis, he heads back to his hometown - and to the local police force there. Home, though, brings no happy memories, and the ghosts of old pain are very much alive in Wahredua. Hazard's new partner, John-Henry Somerset, had been one of the worst tormentors, and Hazard still wonders what Somerset's role was in the death of Jeff Langham, Hazard's first boyfriend.
When a severely burned body is discovered, Hazard finds himself drawn deeper into the case than he expects. Determining the identity of the dead man proves impossible, and solving the murder grows more and more unlikely. But as the city's only gay police officer, Hazard is placed at the center of a growing battle between powerful political forces. To his surprise, Hazard finds an unlikely ally in his partner, the former bully. And as they spend more time together, something starts to happen between them, something that Hazard can't - and doesn't want - to explain.
The discovery of a second mutilated corpse, though, reveals clues that the two murders are linked, and as Hazard gets closer to answers, he uncovers a conspiracy of murder and betrayal that goes deeper - and closer to home - than he could ever expect.
©2017 Gregory Ashe (P)2018 TantorI’ve read this book like 2-3 times now, and I’ll keep reading it. Hazard and Somers are my ultimate queer literary ship. Everything about this universe is so unapologetically queer and authentic. The way Gregory Ashe writes diversity is so effortless. There’s diversity in characters with gender, orientation, sure, but even better… some are good, some are bad, some are morally grey… and there’s a wide variety of backgrounds. They’re not all *out* no way, we got Queer characters in the closet, some questioning… like oh yeah, just like real life… and best part? None of their Queerness is a plot point unless it’s ACTUALLY part of solving the mysterious crimes… and even then it’s treated with respect and logic that people of the force use. Oh and you want gender diversity in authority positions? He’s got you.
Are you one of those people who hates the sanitized version of the Queer experience in books? Making things palatable for heteronormative conservatives to enjoy our stories? Well this universe ain’t for them. This is for us. This has all the trauma, the self-doubt, and h@te of the real world packed into our story because that’s what has forged us into the beautiful humans that we are.
I love that no matter how bad things are for Hazard and Somers, they still fight for their victims, they still fight h@te and injustice in their small neck of the woods, and they still fight for one another (loyalty knk is off the charts here) the Love Wins and Friendship of Chosen Family themes are so heart warming for these damaged men.
It’s the slowest of burns (5 books before they hookup) but it’s worth it I promise. If you love crime, whump, flirty banter, and the Seggsiest Queer men to eyefǔk each other on a regular basis, then this series is for you. I promise you won’t regret it
