Chanse is Back Amos Lassen Greg Herren is back with a new mystery featuring Chanse MacLeod and his new book came just as I was wondering whether we would ever hear from him again. For those of you who are not familiar with Herren's series of books (I called them the "Murder" books), Chanse is a gay former policeman turned detective in New Orleans. All of the books give fascinating insight into gay New Orleans and just as Chanse is the main character in the books, the city of New Orleans also plays a major part. As New Orleans continues to rebuild after Hurricane Katrina, Chanse finds himself embroiled in a very ... Read More: |
