Book Description
The National Book Award winning author returns to his original fictional territory--the lives of the dispossessed in San Francisco--with a parable about the limitations of desire and life at the margins of society In such earlier works of fiction as The Rainbow Stories and The Royal Family, William T. Vollmann wrote of pimps, prostitutes, addicts and homeless dreamers in San Francisco's Tenderloin district. In this new novel, Vollmann returns there with a story that centers around a woman with magical powers whom everyone loves, and who has to love them all back. After being initiated into a coven of island witches, Neva begins to fulfill her fate in a Tenderloin dive bar. Her worshippers include Richard, the introverted, alcoholic, occasionally omniscient narrator; a profane, aggressive transgender sex worker named Shantelle; the brisk but motherly barmaid Francine; and the former Frank, who has renamed herself after her idol Judy Garland. When Judy starts to love Neva too much, Judy's retired policeman boyfriend embarks on a mission of exposure and destruction. Crafted out of language by turns spiritual and sexually graphic, The Lucky Star aches with compassion as it explores celebrity culture, gender identity, incest, Christian sacrifice and, most of all, the quotidian and sometimes faltering heroism of marginalized people who in the face of humiliation and outright violence seek to love in their own way, and stand up for who they are.

Book Description
Michael Prebo was the counselor. He did not have a psychology degree, and he certainly did not follow the profession's code of ethics. He counseled young women to take the plunge. A dozen desperate clients had followed his advice to their watery graves. The svelte and savvy TV journalist, Sullivan Hart, tracked him to California and Michigan, where Prebo set his sights and psychosexual fantasies on her. Jane Doe no. 2 (6/11/92) had been murdered. She had also been raped. Five years later, her rape kit was analyzed. It revealed DNA evidence that could lead to her killer. Michigan State Police homicide specialist Angel Vierra catches the case. He recruits his wife, Shantelle, to assist in the investigation. She had been Angel's partner on Detroit PD's homicide squad one. Although she had taken a four-year sabbatical to become a wife and mother, she jumped back into the game with zeal and guts. Critical praise for Sam Fluharty's first novel Rite of revenge: Fluharty, a former Vietnam pilot, puts his flight experience to good use in this novel and also showcases an authority on police techniques and procedure. The story is briskly paced, and the narrative remains central without disappearing behind extraneous information. An uneven romantic thriller that will appeal to genre fans (Kirkus Reviews of New York).
