\u0091Most of us are gray people who just make our way through life. And then some of us are like Dory. I know she’s what Shakespeare thought about when he wrote that phrase \u0096 she was life’s bright fire.’<\/p>\n

But Dory is dead. Found lying in the parking lot of a lesbian bar, her white-blonde hair ruffled by the gentle breezes of a June evening.<\/p>\n

For homicide detective Kate Delafield, a look into the bewildered silver-blue eyes of the murdered girl is the start of a terrifying journey.<\/p>\n

A journey first to the gay city of West Hollywood where Kate uncovers shocking facts about the brief life of the murdered woman.<\/p>\n

Then an emotional trek fighting against the uncooperative silence from Dory’s parents and the hostile women who should be Dory’s friends \u0096 the lesbians who frequent the Nightwood Bar.<\/p>\n

Emotions run high in Kate’s private life as well, with Kate see-sawing in and out of love\u0085<\/p>\n
