| Introduces Kat, a Chicana detective who can fight her way through anything. Summary : "Kat is a Chicano detective who can fight her way through anything — the U.S. Marine Corps, CIA espionage, California swimming pools, S&M bars, even rape — anything except her passion for the beautiful Angele Stone, a best-selling feminist author certain people are out to destroy." (from the publisher) The Oxford Companion to Women's Writing calls this the first "self-consciously feminist" mystery novel. |
