Five
days after the Loma Prieta earthquake strikes San Francisco, Emily Bryson, a
young, everything-to-live-for lesbian
SFSU student/part-time exotic dancer, is dead, her body washed up on a beach
south of the Golden Gate Bridge. The medical examiner rules it a suicide, and
the police close the missing person case filed by Emilys lover, K. M. Stone
McStone.
Stone,
the universitys graduate admissions officer, doesnt believe its a suicide.
The Emily she knew had too much going for her to take her own life. Through a
series of fortunate circumstances, Stone is introduced to Zoe Martinelli,
office manager of Coppola Investigations, amateur sleuth, and student psychic.
Stone and Zoe team up to find out what really happened to Emily. Their
investigation takes them into the private lives of San Franciscos exotic
dancers and into Emilys dark past where they discover that some secrets can be
deadly.
Was
it suicide, as everyone assumes? Or murder? Or something else?
