Who says heroes can't be gay?Twin Cities life once was pleasant for gay men. But somebody set up a series of scandals and murders to change all that. Somebody wanted to prey on gay men to increase his political power. Somebody had never heard of Alex Kane.
Alex Kane: a gay hero in the tradition of the Destroyer and the Executioner. His only goal is justice for gay people. His only weakness is for other men.
Each of the books in this series focuses on a different segment or aspect of the gay population or is triggered off of a real-life incident. The story line in Deadly Lies is based upon the drowning of Charles Howard on July 7, 1984 in Bangor, Maine after he was thrown off a bridge by two juvenile assailants. - Jay
