The Double Vice

By Chris Holcombe

DECADENT. DUPLICITOUS. DEADLY.
WELCOME TO THE QUEER WORLD OF THE ROARING 20s.

It wasn't how gay speakeasy owner Dash Parker's birthday was supposed to go. But this was New York City at the height of Prohibition, and everything-and everyone-can turn on a dime.

When one of Dash's club patrons is murdered, Dash and his friends must discover the killer while also outwitting a devious blackmailer. Together, they navigate the shadowy world of drag queens, cabaret performers, gangsters, mob molls, lesbian lawyers, and a mysterious but dangerous "Baroness of Business." Men and women who have everything to lose-and some of whom will do anything to keep their secrets hidden.

A trail of clues leads them from Greenwich Village to Harlem and back again. But time is running out, and a ruthless killer's next victim might very well be Dash himself...

The Double Vice is the first novel in the Hidden Gotham series.

"It's one of the best I've read all year I can't recommend it highly enough." (Queer Writers of Crime)
