Summary
Okay guys, here's the deal: in an ill-fated attempt to download this ebook, I accidentally deleted the file. Irrevocably. Which means that, though I can put the file back up as a new work, all your beautiful comments (and kudos, and bookmarks) are lost.
I FEEL SO, SO TERRIBLE ABOUT THIS. The comments were the best part of the whole endeavor; I'm heartbroken to lose them. If anyone is willing to re-comment, or, say, would like me to send them an email copy of their old comments to re-post, I will love you forever. If not, please accept my most abject apologies.
Summary: 1955. Under the placid veneer of suburban playparks and middle-class conformity churns a hidden London: femmes and butches dancing close in basement bars; clandestine love between women. To Sherlock Holmes, struggling private detective and mistress of disguise, it’s a realm she renounced years before. To Johnnie Watson, daredevil ambulance driver turned auto mechanic, it’s become a little too familiar. But when someone is murdered in the washroom of the city’s most notorious lesbian club, the investigation will lead both women to reconsider their assumptions about themselves, each other, and the world in which they live.
