Review title: Sometimes more is less
Product review: The only way I can like this novel is by assuming its excesses are tongue in cheek digs at the degeneration of the lesbian crime novel into political uncorrectness. The detective heroine is "scarred" and a moral midget. She has no principles. For some unfathomable reason, her highly educated supportive and working lover is always sexually available. Our heroine is allowed to sleep around without being punished, something that usually doesn't happen in dyke crime. She doesn't solve anything, but Scoppetone's been doing that for years. She's just the paid witness to a "bizarre" tale anyone who has seen Ricki Lake would yawn at. But even though I never took the book seriously and could enjoy, at some level, its deviance from genre correctness, its stand on drugs irritates me. Any author presenting cocaine consumption as less damaging than it really is, is doing readers a disfavor. Read Redmann instead.
