After the Horses: A Dan Sharp Mystery

After the Horses: A Dan Sharp Mystery

2016 Lambda Literary Award for Gay Mystery â€• Shortlisted

Dan Sharp scours Torontoâ€™s seamy underbelly after the murder of a notorious nightspot owner, and finds his own life on the line.

When Yuri Malevski, owner of notorious country-and-western bar The Saddle and Bridle, is found dead in his Parkdale mansion, missing-persons investigator Dan Sharp is reluctant to interfere in what he sees as police business. At first, Malevskiâ€™s sleazy lifestyle and shady associates make the murder look like an open-and-shut case, but Dan reconsiders after being approached by a couple who say Malevski was killed by cops over protection money.

When vulnerable people who had frequented the dead manâ€™s bar begin to disappear, Dan feels compelled to jump in feet first. Following a lead, his investigation takes him into the heart of Torontoâ€™s gay community, where he confronts its down-and-outs â€• transients, drug dealers, and con artists â€• and soon finds his own life threatened as his search brings him closer to a killer.
