Carved In Bone - The Henry Rios Mysteries, #2

A new mystery by six time Lambda Literary award-winning author, Michael Nava. It's classic noir with a queer twist. Set in San Francisco in 1984, Henry Rios is hired by an insurance company to investigate the apparently accidental death by carbon monoxide poisoning of Bill Ryan in his Castro Street apartment, but Rios becomes convinced Ryan's death was no accident, and that his young lover is implicated.
David Ebershoff, author of The Danish Girl, calls Carved In Bone  a "rich, haunting, " novel that features "one of the most original protagonists in American crime fiction."
