PI Donald Strachey is investigating again: This time because a discriminating radio host apparently is harassed by a group of aggressive gay liberation fighters. Suddenly people get kidnapped by this so called FFF. What is true and what´s not? The story is not that bad but the story-telling is one of Stevenson´s inferior efforts. There are too many odd side tracks and political over-correct things in the book. The plot isn´t that good and the ending is not quite convincing. I´ld see: skip this one. ( ) Stevenson's eighth Donald Strachey novel begins with the P.I. on a train to New York City to (possibly) work for a right-wing politically-incorrect radio personality-- supposedly threatened by 'The Forces of Free Faggotry'. Donald knew the FFF back in 1978 (see "Death Trick"), so a closeted cop-associate recommended him for this job. The investigation ranges over the New England states as Don puts together clues with the help of a gay Amish farmer. The story is typical of Stevenson's work-- full of Don's dry wit, some history of the gay movement, and interesting, entertaining plot twists. I recommend the whole series. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Onderdeel van de reeks(en)
A long-defunct gay activist group seems to be threatening radio shock jock Jay Plankton. As The J-Bird, the man's hate-filled rants offend Strachey deeply. Among the subjects Stevenson tackles in this series entry is homophobia in modern police services like the NYPD, where coming out carries more than its usual share of costs.
