Rescue Me An Andy Hayes Mystery

"Andrew Welsh-Huggins . . . has brought his series hero, gumshoe Andy Hayes, out of the wings for his ninth adventure. And the hero is no angel. Andy was dumped when his wife caught him bundling with a cheerleader. Once a college football star, Andy was barred from the game for point-shaving. Now he's hired to protect a young drag performer from harm in Columbus, Ohio, and his sins are of the tin-ear variety: he tells his client how "people like you" should act. As threats and attacks escalate, Andy follows the trail to a white supremacist group, tangles with police detective Henrietta Millner, and jeopardizes his daughter Alex's training to become a police officer. There's a lot of action packed into these 100 pages. Unfortunately, the clashes during the depicted anti-LGBTQIA protests pale in comparison to those in the real world. But readers will want to know more about Millner." - Booklist
