NYPD Red chases a ruthless murderer with an uncontrollable lust for money - and blood. It's another glamorous night in the heart of Manhattan: at a glitzy movie premiere, a gorgeous starlet, dressed to the nines and dripping in millions of dollars' worth of jewelry on loan, makes her way past a horde of fans and paparazzi. But then there's a sudden loud noise, an even louder scream, and a vicious crime with millions of witnesses and no suspect - and now NYPD Red has a new case on its hands. NYPD Red: the elite task force assigned to protect the rich, famous, and connected in the city where crime never sleeps. Detective Zach Jordan and his partner, Kylie MacDonald - a former girlfriend from the police academy who he hasn't quite gotten over - are the best that Red has to offer,brilliant and tireless investigators who will stop at nothing to crack a case,even if it means putting their own complicated lives on the back burner. From celebrity penthouses to the depths of Manhattan's criminal underworld, Zach and Kylie are soon in hot pursuit of a cold-blooded killer with everything to lose, and millions to gain if he can just shake the detectives on his trail. With the city on edge, the mayor out of patience, and the flames of their personal relationship threatening to reignite and ruin everything, Zach and Kylie are facing down their worst fears--and their worst enemy yet.

Gray cloth spine/ gray boards. From the Dust Jacket: "Christopher Isherwood's admits, in his second autobiography, that his first was 'not truly autobiographical' because 'the author conceals important facts about himself.' John Addington Symonds relates a glorious night of passion, in which he and his lover 'lay covered from the cold in bed, tasting the honey of softly spoken words and the blossoms of lips pressed on lips.' These contradictions, evasions, and explicit sexual details of these life stories -- and many more -- form GAY LIVES, the first book to take homosexual autobiography as its subject. Paul Robinson reads the memoirs of fourteen French, British, and American gay authors -- including Jean Genet, Quentin Crisp, and Martin Duberman -- through the prism of sexual identity... Robinson shows how all these authors struggled to cope with their sexuality and to reconcile it with prevailing conceptions of masculinity; he considers, through their writings, the choices each man made to accommodate himself to society's homophobia or live in protest against his oppression... GAY LIVES refutes the notion that there is a typical homosexual 'career' by showing that gay men have led wildly dissimilar lives -- from the exuberant to the miserable -- and that they have found no less dissimilar meanings in those lives." .
