Book Description

April 17, 2000
Mark is a newcomer to gay life, and to the gay summer community of Rehoboth Beach, Delaware, the gay mecca of the mid-Atlantic seaboard. The beautiful, available men, the sudden freedom, and the intense scrutiny of his every asset on the beach draw Mark into this complex world where he learns the rules of beach life, with its exultation, stresses, and, ultimately, mystery. As prominent gay men die one-by-one throughout the summer, Dr. Mary Fox, the new county Medical Examiner, is pulled into a world she never knew but to which she has surprising connections. Obsessive love of opera, traditional Catholicism, unknown drugs, homophobia, U.S. Army chemical warfare researchers, alleged police incompetence, hysterical news media, and catty witticisms mix together as an increasingly divided community struggles to solve the mystery before the next victim appears. Mark finds that he must wrestle with his own demons and the divided life that he leads. By August, the question at every party and tea dance is the same: who will be the next person to receive Toscas kiss?

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Beach Read, July 27, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Tosca's Kiss (Paperback)
If you have ever been immersed in the gay beach scene, this isthe summer book for you! Funny, sexy, and tragic -- just like reallife (almost). The complex story of a newcomer to the beach moves along swiftly to its ... end, but in the meantime there are hilarious one liners that will be used on the boardwalk for years to come. A perfect companion for your beach bag.

2.0 out of 5 stars Was it even edited?, August 13, 2011

This review is from: Tosca's Kiss (Paperback)
This was a huge disappointment and a waste of my money.... Highly disappointed. Had to re-read MANY sentences to understand what was originally intended, as this book was never edited professionally... I found that very frustrating... You will be able to guess the killer in the early chapters.... Don't waste your money, seriously.
