A murdered male stripper. A missing go-go dancer. A city councilman on the hook. Can Atlanta homicide detective Sergeant Kendall Parker solve the vicious crime while remaining safely hidden behind the closet door?
When the body of a young man is found in a popular midtown park, police and local media are quick to pin the brutal killing on a homeless gay kid with AIDS. But homicide detective Sgt. Kendall Parker isn't so convinced, even when the suspect is accused of assaulting another police detective with a deadly weapon.
City leaders want the murder solved yesterday and jump at the chance to pin the crime on the drug-craving teen. It's an election year, so remaining in office is their top priority, even at the sacrifice of the young man. Sgt. Parker isn't so persuaded and is determined to prove Hopper's innocence, despite the protest of his colleagues and its threat to the deep secret Parker has carefully hidden from his comrades for years.

And yes, part of it might be F.C. McAllister's narration, but that wasn't all. I think I probably wasn't in the mood to appreciate this story that first time around.
This is a bitter story, full of bad, ugly people. It was hard for me to like the characters, even the protagonist at times. It took me A LOT to warm to Kendall.
There is so much corruption and hate going on through all the book... The story is very well researched and that is evident. But there is a terrifying homophobic sense to it. The police depatment, his boss, even his partner are really homophobic and everybody is throwing slurs all the time. TBH, the story felt more set in the 80s than the 2010s, particularly with the important part that AIDS plays into some of the events.
And I still didn't enjoy the dialogues. But the thing is, this time around I really enjoyed the story itself.
Yes, it's gritty and dark, and very difficult at times. But it is a good story.
A solid, good story
