By: Joseph Hansen | Series: A Dave Brandstetter MysteryThe brutality of the AIDS epidemic and a nation's growing homophobia set the stage for a serial killer targeting gay men in Los Angeles—and Dave Brandstetter finds himself in the killer's path.
Dave Brandstetter's afternoon does not begin well: his ex-boyfriend picks him up at the airport, and the ride home — in bumper-to-bumper Los Angeles traffic — is one long argument between them. The insurance investigator's day gets worse when he finds a man — bloody, rain-soaked, and ice cold — lying on his porch, killed by a stab wound while Dave was out of town.
There is a serial killer loose in Los Angeles, and this man is his sixth victim. Like the others, he had already been marked for death – by the unforgiving plague known as AIDS. Someone is targeting sick men in the city, and Dave's search for the killer leads him into the dark side of gay Los Angeles, where death comes without warning and life is a fearful dream.
Decades after its original publication in 1987, Early Graves remains an important literary achievement. The exigence of Joseph Hansen’s frontline reportage of the AIDS epidemic is as powerful as his prose craft and mystery plot are clever.

Cute, Well Done, Much Better Than I Presumed
Format: Paperback
I am not the target for this book. I'm a 48 year old man (wow, that hits harder when you type it...) But you know what? This is really good! It's a quick read, the whole story is VERY comic book superhero origin (which... I mean... it should be, that's what it is!)
We have a young lady who is in the foster system, so needless to say she's always suspect of everyone and everything. When she finds a new set of foster parents, her curiosity about her foster mother gets the best of her. What she finds? Paints that give super powers! Wacky hijinks ensue.. until the military wants the paint back. Then it's less wacky.
But it's adorable! The art is great for the material, the coloring is amazing, and the story is surprisingly cute. It's genuinely good!
My 9-year old daughter, who IS the target audience, loved it too, and getting her to read anything is like pulling teeth, so if she likes it, it must be good!

Great book!
Format: Paperback
My daughter is 8 years old and loves reading graphic novels. I came across this one and wasn’t sure if it would be for her age but figured we would give it a try. So glad I ordered it! She read it so fast and it quickly became one of her favorites! I have the second book in my cart now.
