In Tongue Tied: A Donald Strachey Mystery, Richard Stevenson's eighth amusing whodunit to feature his gay Albany, N.Y., PI, Strachey has to figure out who tossed a tear-gas canister into the studio of Jay Plankton (aka ""J-Bird''), the first of other, increasingly bizarre attacks on the radio ""shock jock"" during the period leading up to the 2000 elections. Straight and gay readers will appreciate the author's wry social commentary.
