"Dave Brandstetter's afternoon does not begin well: his ex-boyfriend picks him up at the airport, and the ride home--in bumper-to-bumper Los Angeles traffic--is one long argument between them. The insurance investigator's day gets worse when he finds a man -- bloody, rain-soaked, and ice cold--lying on his porch, killed by a stab wound while Dave was out of town. There is a serial killer loose in Los Angeles, and this man is his sixth victim. Like the others, he had already been marked for death--by the unforgiving plague known as AIDS. Someone is targeting sick men in the city, and Dave's search for the killer leads him into the dark side of gay Los Angeles, where death comes without warning and life is a fearful dream. Decades after its original publication in 1987, Early Graves remains an important literary achievement. The exigence of Joseph Hansen's frontline reportage of the AIDS epidemic is as powerful as his prose craft and mystery plot are clever"--Back cover.

A studio portrait of a Union drummer boy with his mother. The boy is standing on the left, turned slightly to the right, and is resting his left hand on his mother's shoulder. The mother is seated, wearing a wide skirted dress with dark lines of trim on the sleeves and skirt, with lace decorations at the cuffs and the collar, and with a cameo brooch at the center of the collar. The photograph is mounted in a dark brown case lined with red velvet, within a gilt-decorated setting.
