WHAT ARE FRIENDS FOR?

Ginny's best friend, Bev, has a problem. Her white lover, a well known lesbian executive is found dead near a lesbian bar. A mutual friend, Naomi, believes Bev will be suspect. After all she is Black and is more likely to shoulder the blame since the two had problems. Once she is blamed then Ginny and Naomi may be found guilty by association. Ginny refuses to believe this and begins her own investigation in finding the real killer. While pursuing this course she runs into her own set of personal problems. She dumps her own white lover for a crazed female lawyer who is continuously stalking her. She also has problems of being a lone Black lesbian who has few Black friends to relate to and feels unfulfilled in her relationships with one white lover after another. Follow her through the twists and turns of Chicago and Boston as she attempts to solve this mystery. Nikki Baker has given us a decent first novel in a new series featuring a Black Lesbian Detective. It is well worth the read and touches on a wide variety of issues involving race, class, sexuality and self-esteem. No doubt we will hear more about Virginia "Ginny" Kelly.
