The Ghosts of Stonewall (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781475066852)

Travel back to 1969, the infamous Stonewall riots in Greenwich Village, New York City, where many were battered by police tactical units in riot gear during a street battle for gay rights. Dustin is brutally beaten to death by Officer Leon. Days later, Dustin's partner Jaime dies of a broken heart. But Jaime doesn't move on to the afterlife. Unwilling to let go of his lost love, he refuses to be reborn and ignores all warnings from his spirit guardian that he will fade into oblivion. He becomes entrapped by his longing and, as a ghost, lingers around each of Dustin's new personalities, obsessed with regaining their love. Yet Jaime's interference alters their life destinies and only further complicates their karmic lessons with repeated tragic turns, as Dustin is bent on exacting revenge against Officer Leon. Heartwarming and tender comic relief is found in Dustin and Jaime's dear friend Peter, a drag queen who outlives them through all their lives and bedazzles in his glittery purple eyeliner. In this timeless story of the human heart, will Dustin and Jaime survive their Stonewall karma? Will they find each other again? How many lives will it take?
