About this ebook

Boston’s hottest new gay bar is making a killing in this mystery first published in 1984 that’s “screamingly funny in the gayest way!” (The New York Times).

Daniel Valentine is a gay bartender. Clarisse Lovelace is his straight pal. From Boston’s gay underground to the fabulous beaches of Provincetown, they do everything together (well, okay, not everything). And between it all, they still find time to solve a few murders.

When Clarissa is gifted a run-down building by her gay uncle Noah, she and Daniel decide to make a dream come true: opening their own gay bar. While Clarissa heads off to law school, Daniel gets busy turning their new bar into Boston’s grooviest gay boite. In this exuberantly pre-AIDS world, everything seems perfectly peachy—until Daniel discovers a dead body at the disco.

    4/5
    3rd in the Valentine and Lovelace series. This takes place shortly after the 2nd book. This has Clarisse just starting law school and Valentine is going to open a bar with them living in apartments above the bar. The apartments and the bar both need lots of renovations. Luckily for the pair Valentine's roommate in the hospital was also a contractor. Another book with a wide variety of characters, a lesbian hooker and her partner have one of the apartments upstairs. Next door is a beauty parlor with Mr. Fred and his sister Ms. America. The book starts with the murder of a mean gossip columnist in Clarisse's apartment after a welcome to the neighborhood party thrown by Mr. Fred. This mystery take a little of a backstage to the other characters unraveling many of the cast is not who they appear to be. An interesting point someone tries to kill Clarisse with a VCR, a Betamax no less.
