Family Issue Format: Paperback

Vandalism and violence at Fortune Farm have pulled investigator Denni Hope home to Southern Louisiana. Her insistent ex-girlfriend, Patty Price, expects Denni to get to the bottom of an endless nightmare of trouble. For Denni, it means watching Patty with Yolanda Elliott, the creepy, conniving lowlife who stole Patty away.
Denni had hoped Patty was exaggerating, but the chaos at the farm borders on evil. The Price family is well-loved but nothing has been right since the death of Patty&;s mother. A war-crazy neighbor and a business competitor are just the beginning of the list of suspects.
But just as Denni feels she&;s making progress, Yolanda asks for help from an old friend of her own: police officer Bonita Corcaran. The move is so typical of Yolanda—it&;s an already difficult situation, but now Denni must deal with the most attractive, seductive woman she has ever met.

After decades as an award-winning journalist, poet and playwright, it was natural for Nat Burns to turn to fiction, and to explore the lives and loves of lesbians. With a long history of reporting on the music scene in her monthly Lesbian News column, she&;s an editor and proofreader who also spends considerable time as a systems analyst. She recently relocated to Albuquerque, New Mexico.
