Synopsis

Val Frazier, Victoria’s star TV anchorwoman, is Caitlin’s newest client. She is the victim of a viciously homophobic blackmailer who has discovered her relationship with Tonia Konig.
Tonia is a lesbian-feminist professor, an outspoken, passionately committed proponent of nonviolence. She is enraged by her own helplessness, she is outraged by Caitlin’s challenge to her most fundamental beliefs, and by Caitlin herself, whom she considers “a thug”.
As Caitlin stalks the blackmailer and his accomplices through the byways of the city of Victoria, she uncovers ever darker layers of danger surrounding Tonia. And she struggles against a new and altogether unwanted complication: she is increasingly attracted to the woman who despises her.
Douglas’s debut novel in 1987 began a six part series for Caitlin Reece. This new edition includes an introduction by the author and a foreword by legendary Katherine V. Forrest.
“Douglas’ book is snappily written, peppered with wit and literary allusions, and filled with original characters.” – Sherri Paris, The Women’s Review of Books
“A very accomplished first novel, which is distinguishable by an elegant flair for description and an obvious love of the language … This is a stunning first effort and I’ll eagerly await Douglas next book.” – Karen Axness, Feminist Bookstore News
