4.0

Tom and Scott are caught in a bombing, killing many and putting Tom in hospital.
With suspicious people at every turn, threats coming in, Scott’s car being blown up as well, there are too many possible suspects and everyone could be a baddie!
Tom and Scott disagree somewhat on the suspects and guilt of the abortion extremists, and Tom looses his good friend, the One Dead Drag Queen.
Resolution comes quite quickly, with the ongoing threats coming from close to home and the bomber revealing himself at the end.

For a narrative that involves a bombing, a murder, and stalkers, this story moved at a glacial pace. A large part of the problem was the unnecessary repetition of everything from character thoughts to simple word choices. I wanted to like this novel, but the quality was lacking.

I just think that if the title of your book states that there is a dead drag queen inside, then you need to introduce the body far earlier on than it was in this one. The suspense died before the drag queen did.

Also, there was literally only one drag queen in this book. So waiting so long for him to die was extremely tedious. It just didn't work for me.
