The little death

Introduced by Alyson in 1986, the Henry Rios crime series by Michael Nava will come to an end with the publication of the final volume later in 2001. Spanning 15 years and seven books, Nava's brilliant storytelling has earned him comparisons to Dashiell Hammett and Raymond Chandler, four Lambda Literary Awards and a worldwide following. To commemorate this event, Alyson now re-issue one of Nava's all-time classics and the first of the books in the series.
