Synopsis

Winner of the Lambda Literary Award for Best Mystery, 2009. When his friend's death is ruled a suicide, Kevin Connor--a hustler by trade, sleuth by default--sets out to prove a case of murder. It doesn't help matters that the victim's grown children, who disapproved of their father's gay lifestyle, are only concerned about their inheritance. But they are not Kevin's only problem. His high-strung mother has moved in with him--and she knows nothing about his questionable . . . job. 
Scott Sherman has written for Newsweek, Genre, Instinct, and The Washington Blade. The follow-up to First You Fall, Second You Sin was released in October, 2011 in trade paperback and for the Kindle.

Review

• "Funny, intriguing, and exciting---everything a great mystery should be. There's a warmth, a passion, a sexiness here rarely found in novels of this genre. Kevin Conner is a terrific hero, and I'm looking forward to his next adventure. Scott Sherman is the gay Janet Evanovich." J.A. Konrath, Best-Selling Author, Jack Daniels Mysteries

• Sherman's witty novel is full of clever pop-culture references ("CSI," "Charlie's Angels" and the films of Barbra Streisand) and many amusing one-liners. The wacky characters, which include Kevin's BFF, Freddy...and Kevin's mom... are immensely enjoyable." Gary M. Kramer, Phila. Gay News.

• ""One of the best reads I've had this year." Drewey Wayne Gunn, The Gay Male Sleuth in Print and Film.

• "Wow! Fast paced, sexy read with a hero I adored. I picked it up to read while my computer backed up and devoured it in a few hours. Kevin, male hustler, was cute, sweet, sexy and I loved being inside his head! Oh, and Tony? Super yum. A great, fun read...I look forward to the next Kevin Conner Mystery!" Megan Hart, author, Tempted.

I hope you enjoy this first entry in the Kevin Connor series. The story continues in Second You Sin.
