Über diesen Titel

Shaw and North are best friends, private detectives, and in danger of losing their agency. A single bad case, followed by crippling lawsuits, has put them on the brink of closing shop. Until, that is, a client walks into their Benton Park office.

Matty Fennmore is young, blond, and beautiful, and he’s in danger. When he asks for Shaw and North’s help foiling a blackmail scheme, the detectives are quick to accept.

The conspiracy surrounding Matty runs deeper than Shaw and North expect. As they dig into the identity of Matty’s blackmailer, they are caught in a web that touches politicians, the local LGBT community, and the city’s police.

An attack on Matty drives home the rising stakes of the case, and Shaw and North must race to find the blackmailer before he can silence Matty. But a budding romance lays bare long-buried feelings between Shaw and North, and as their relationship splinters, solving the case may come at the cost of their friendship.

I love the two main characters. North is all over the place - he's insecure and in love with Shaw, but also very married and stuck in a bad place. Shaw is cute and obviously sad over North while also still traumatised from having his first boyfriend dying under tragic circumstances. Also, he's a huge hippy.
I like the story. It's rather convoluted, with Matty as a mysterious client, a drag queen with a penchant for virgins (poor Shaw!), and a murder of the entirely wrong person. Its conclusion made sense in the end, but in between I had to pay attention to not lose track of who was doing what.
I'm not too much of a fan of the narrator. The switching POVs don't always come across as clearly as they could have. It's not that much of an issue, but it could have been handled differently.
All in all, I enjoyed the story and the characters, though at time I wanted to bash their heads together because boooooys talk to each other. I'm looking forward to part II!
