Death With Dignity

by Jack Ricardo

Private investigator Jim Halden has joined his local chapter of Dignity, an organization of gay Catholic men and women. At Jim's second meeting, Deacon Pete, recently estranged from his wife and newly out of the closet, is found dead behind the altar—strangled.
The list of suspects is long and the fact that Halden isn't always on good terms with the local authorities won't make the job any easier. With some less-than-welcome help from a couple of deranged suspects and an additional murder or two along the way, he sets out to the find the murderer.

[Ava B · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a great book, extremely relevant to modern times despite its age. A classic murder mystery tied into the corruption of Catholicism as well as the lgbt community makes it an interesting type of mystery read. Good for analysis.

This book also shares a name with one of the most beautiful Sufjan Stevens songs from his album Carrie and Lowell, and the similarities between the two are eerily similar.

All around great read!
