Night Songs: A Mimi Patterson/Gianna Maglione Mystery (The Mimi Patterson/Gianna Maglione Mysteries) (Volume 2)

A follow-up to the sensational "Keeping Secrets," the book that launched the Mimi/Gianna series, "Night Songs" was a Lambda Literary Award finalist. From one alley to the next in the seamy underside of our nation's capital, the city's top investigative newspaper reporter, Mimi Patterson, chases the disappearance of two prostitutes who were leading her to a potentially huge story. Police Lieutenant Gianna Maglione is fighting mad. The murders of six women have gone cold because Homicide and Vice detectives didn't recognize the truth that Gianna did: The murders were Hate Crimes and belonged to her Unit. Just because the women are prostitutes doesn't mean they're not victims of a hate crime: The crime of being female. Night time is the right time--for hatred and murder and for love and passion. For Mimi and Gianna.
