Carved in Bone
A new mystery
by six-time Lambda Literary award winner, Michael Nava. Set in San Francisco in
1984, Henry Rios, a gay criminal defense lawyer, is fresh out of rehab
and trying to put his life back together. He's hired by an insurance company to
investigate the apparently accidental death by carbon monoxide poisoning of
Bill Ryan in the Castro Street apartment he shared with his lover, who survived.
As he delves into Bill Ryan's life, Rios becomes convinced Ryan’s death was no
accident, and that his young lover is implicated. Meanwhile, the tsunami of
AIDS is bearing down on San Francisco’s gay community.
