It's 1979, the height of the post-Stonewall era of gay sexual liberation, and a young man has been brutally murdered. The gay son of a wealthy family has disappeared. Now it's up to private dick Don Strachey to get to the bottom of this mess--even if he has to cruise every gay bar in the city to do it!
Don Strachey isn't exactly the most sought-after private eye in Albany, New York. In fact, this gay P.I. has gotten to the point of having to write checks to pay his tab at the cheapest lunch counter in town. And he isn't sure that the latest one, for the grand total of two dollars and ninety-three cents, is going to clear. Then the phone rings. Billy Blount, the gay heir to one of Saratoga Springs' upper-crust families, has disappeared, and his parents want him back. On top of that, Billy, a young and outspoken gay activist, is wanted for the grizzly murder of the man he slept with on his last night in Albany--a man he'd never met before that night! </p>
Set in the glorious, promiscuous pre-HIV late 1970s, Death Trick is a fast-paced excursion through the seamy underside of gay Albany. From gay discos where the hard-pumping music never stops, to the city's infamous baths, to the dark alley behind the local precinct house, this hard-bitten private dick searches for answers to the questions that plague Billy's parents and the police. </p>
With his faithful companion (and unfaithful lover) Timmy plus a cast of characters that includes drag queens, ex-jock gay bar owners, homophobic cops, male hustlers, and wealthy suburbanites, Strachey begins a chase that leads him to seedy gay bars, posh suburban homes, and pricey mental institutions where they use electric shock to destroy "sick" gay tendencies. </p>
Armistead Maupin describes Death Trick as "sassy and sexy" and calls Don Strachey, "a private dick who really earns his title." The New York Native calls the novel, "more than just a first-rate murder mystery." The Advocate said, "a great lazy-day read." And Newsday called the book, "well written and compelling." </p>
Don't you owe it to yourself to take this trick home tonight?
還成……不過電影比較省力……洋文太差
評分通勤讀物。
評分今天突然看到瞭這本書的曆史真實原型。迴過頭來安利一波Donald Strachey係列小說。主角是一個同性戀偵探,生活在同誌社區。愛人是政府工作人員。接觸的案件多半是LGBTQ相關。這一係列小說不僅寫得非常流暢,案件的水準和感情綫的安排(時不時喂點狗糧主角一對超級甜的)節奏也不錯。個人認為,作者自身作為LGBTQ的成員身份,某種程度上以一個親曆者的筆觸記錄下瞭從80年代到韆禧年後LGBTQ群體的狀態。視角很難得,而且描述客觀平實。例如這本書,案件當事人的原型是米開朗琪羅·西尼奧裏萊,以及他當時所創辦的雜誌OutWeek,專門為當時的公眾人物開櫃的文章。這個事件在90年代早期,是LGBTQ運動的重要組成部分。看小說的同時仿佛跟著主角迴溯瞭一遍曆史。體驗很難得。

死亡诡计是DSM系列的开篇之作,也是我看过的三本(死亡诡计、不从即死、第三疑凶)中最硬的一本。这个硬,既是指悬疑内容较重,又是指感情戏较奇怪。事实上这书是我三年前看的,很多情节已经记不清了所以前者纯粹是凭D四处寻找线索得出的结论,但后者的感觉却是很清晰的,如今...
