An Evander Mills Mystery

De: Lev AC Rosen

Narrado por: Vikas Adam

Lev AC Rosen delivers a new and captivating 1950s mystery in this dazzling, award-winning series. This program is read by Audie Award-winning and Audiofile Golden Voice narrator Vikas Adam.

Private Investigator Evander “Andy” Mills’ next case takes him out of his comfort zone in San Francisco—and much to his dismay, back home to Los Angeles. After a secretive queer rights organization called the Mattachine Society enlists Andy to find some missing members, he must dodge not only motorcycle gangs and mysterious forces, but his own mother, too.

Avoiding her proves to be a challenge when the case leads Andy to the psychiatric clinic she works at. Worlds collide, buried secrets are dug up, and Andy realizes he's going to have to make some hard choices. With secrets, drugs, and doctors swirling around him, time is running out for Andy to locate the missing and get them to safety. And for him to make it back to San Francisco in one piece.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"[A] well-built procedural with fascinating tidbits of queer history... The real magic, though, is in Rosen’s depiction of the struggles and triumphs of mid century queer life: he highlights pockets of LGBTQ+ resilience, including Evander’s San Francisco community and emergent gay subcultures in L.A., without painting the past in too rosy a light. This series deserves a long life."—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

"As with earlier series entries, character development and worldbuilding take center stage. Should appeal to fans of Cat Sebastian and KJ Charles and those who enjoy a gritty noir detective story with an appealing protagonist."—Library Journal

“Required reading for anyone who wonders what it was like to be queer before Stonewall.”—Kirkus Reviews

Another Compelling Story

The themes and the mystery worked together flawlessly. I love this series. The only negative is how hard it is to wait for the next one!

Another Great One!

Another great performance by Vikas Adam and another keeps-you-guessing mystery by Lev AC Rosen! I thoroughly enjoyed this one and can't wait for the next volume. The author is continuing to develop the main characters really well.

Relevant historical fiction

The performance is flawless and the story is just as good as the previous books. But what makes this one so interesting is how the author brought in a historical fiction element that is relevant today (lgb + trans rights)
