About This Book
In a unique departure from the conventions of most serial fiction, this novel depicts the events of the previous book, Also Known as Syzygy, from the point of view of the women of The AKA Investigations team. -Lesbian Literati Jobeth O'Brien discovers that even when she's out of commission, due to a back injury, there's no way she can stay out of the loop. Not when so much is going on in her household full of women. There's a disturbing theme to things though, when time after time she and Phoebe, Izzy and Ginger are forced to help women out of violent situations, and go after the men intent on keeping those women exactly where they want them. Both couples - Jobeth and Phoebe, Izzy and Ginger - are suffering from the side-effect of all this, questioning their roles in the world and their relationships. Phoebe is she from whom all blessings flow - but is this enough for her? Jobeth is sharp but unschooled - she's not liking how she compares to Phoebe's old college friends. Izzy is having a really tough time, the return of unwelcome family connections making her question her talent and her dreams. Ginger takes on the case of her career, but at home, she's having to hide something from Izzy. Meanwhile, a rapist is on the prowl, and no one is feeling safe anymore.
