About this listen
Tough and demanding LAPD Detective Kate Delafield is the leader of the investigation into a high-rise office building murder. The case is intriguing but routine - until Kate interviews the only witness, Ellen O'Neil.
When Ellen O'Neil took her new job over the objections of her lover, she wasn't expecting to become embroiled in murder. The curiosity that Kate Delafield rouses is equally unexpected. But it is never far from Ellen's mind that she is merely a name on an interview sheet to the tight-lipped detective.
Kate's thin trail of clues are enough to convince her that she is looking for an amateur, and amateurs are notoriously unpredictable and dangerous. She finds her path increasingly intersecting with that of Ellen O'Neil, who is proving unpredictable and dangerous in a far more personal way.

Not bad - be aware of the racist terms used
Not bad, some of the descriptions were vague in places. The racist terms used totally made me uncomfortable and almost want to switch it off. It got there in the end and was a good education of the year it was set and the horrible things that people did in America not so long ago. Very thought provoking.

1984
It’s shocking what some people thought it was acceptable to say in relation to gender and race 40 years ago and when this book was first published. The author was clearly progressive. Not only is this a great mystery novel and lesbian fiction/romance but it is also a reminder of how far we’ve come when we lament how far we still have to go. The constant references to smoking was also quite a throwback.
