Queer Justice

By Alex Charns

Decades before Jeffrey Epstein conspiracies, FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover sexually blackmailed sitting Supreme Court Justice Abe Fortas into serving as his informant on the High Court. Queer Justice is a novel inspired by this true story of corruption, intrigue, and vicious anti-gay bigotry of the 1960s. A father and son team of attorneys solves the mystery.
