description: An Anthony and Edgar Award nominee, and the winner of the Lambda Literary Award for Closet and Outburst, R.D. Zimmerman, like Sandra Scoppettone and Michael Nava, marries the best of gay and mystery fiction in Innuendo, the latest in his acclaimed Todd Mills mystery series.Glamorous, fabulous, and famous, A-list actor Tim Chase is in Minneapolis shooting his new film. Although he's married to Gwen Owens, herself a beautiful and talented member of the Hollywood elite, one question continues to follow him: "Is he gay?" As an investigative journalist for WLAK-TV, Todd Mills knows he's the perfect person to break the story, if he can get an interview with the reclusive star.Todd's pursuit of the Chase story is tragically interrupted by the murder of a young runaway whom Todd and Todd's lover, homicide detective Steve Rawlins, both knew from their volunteer efforts at the local center for gay youths. As he investigates for WLAK-TV, Todd finds out that Rawlins knew the young man much better than he is willing to admit at first, and that Rawlins is trying to keep this embarrassing fact from becoming public.A roller coaster of a mystery and a sharp assessment of gay life in America--and Hollywood--in and out of the closet, this latest entry into the Todd Mills series is R.D. Zimmerman's finest book to date.
