Hennepin County Judge & Minneapolis Sleuth = ?

November 7, 2013

Here is the third of these “identify the author” entries. Elise asks for our help with this:

I’ve been searching for a book I read in the early 90s by a local Minneapolis author. It was his debut novel and set in Minneapolis. I vaguely remember the plot involved the detective uncovering a secret of a Hennepin County judge that was involved in a young male prostitution ring of sorts.
I don’t remember the author or the name of the book. Any help would be appreciated!

So, if you know who Elise might possibly be looking for, please post a comment. Thank you!

    I wanted to thank you for this site. I review it almost every day and it is fabulous. I’d like to join a readers group but don’t know of one. I just retired from my 100 hour a week job so now I am all set up to read even more often. I love cozies and I believe they are highly underrated (and my degree is in writing).

    Thank you again.

      Kathey, thank you for the kind words about the site. I’m glad you’re enjoying it.

      Now, go take it easy! After a 100 hour a week job you deserve it!
