DiPole

On a dark Southern California night, a man and his wife are brutally murdered in their car near the beach on their 25th wedding anniversary. No witnesses. No motives. No suspects. Who would want to kill a couple of popular and well-liked doctors? The unsolved 'hit' becomes the stuff of legend in Surf City, even as the case goes cold. Six years later a son's grieving mother turns to an unlikely detective in her search for closure to this unthinkable crime. John DiPole is more famous for being a hermaphrodite than a super sleuth. His friends are few and, like him, they skew more to the fringes of society. But he may just have what it takes to solve a case the police have long forgotten. That is, as long as the demons of his past don't lead him astray in his search for the truth.
