Synopsis

A Donald Strachey Mystery, Book 6 – Private Investigator Donald Strachey is asked to look into the events surrounding the months-old murder of Eric Osborne. His death, originally believed to be a random attack, takes on new significance when Janet Osborne, Eric's sister, survives an attempt on her life.

Skeeter, Eric's lover, believed both attacks were meant to silence them before the sale of their family's newspaper. Drawn into a complex family feud, Strachey must unravel the secret behind the attacks before the killer tries again.

Written over a period of three decades, the Donald Strachey series authentically chronicles gay life as it unfolded in upstate New York. An author’s note is included.

“Richard Stevenson's mysteries are among the wittiest and most politically pointed around today.” — Washington Post

“Stevenson makes his way deftly through Chain of Fools, with a strong sense of plot and a good ear for dialogue.” — Boston Globe
