Evel Dead Center
Carole Lafavor
Fans of lesbian mysteries who have been looking for diverse characters will be happy to see Evil Dead Center, the second in a series featuring Ojibwa sleuth Renee LaRoche. When the white coroner near Red Earth reservation dismisses the death of a Native American woman as death by alcohol and exposure, Renee and her former lover, American Indian Movement activist Cal Beltrain, investigate. While navigating the detritus of their relationship, ‘Runner’ and Cal discover a case that involves the abuse of Ojibwa kids placed in white foster homes. In addition to being a mystery, Evil Dead Center shows the different lives that Renee leads on and off the reservation, and how she negotiates her life as a two-spirit Native American queer person in a largely white, straight world.
