I just started The Killer Wore Leather: A Mystery by Laura Antoniou. If you've ever been to a leather contest or a BDSM event, you'll love this book. I can't say yet how it holds up as a mystery, but Antoniou's keen eye and sharp wit note all the details of a leather pageant, from the behind-the-scenes workings of the event to the smorgasbord of BDSM identities and personalities.

I'm just two chapters into it, and there have been a few places where I laughed out loud at the dialogue-- not because it's farcical, but because it's so damned TRUE ("Go find boy Jack. No, the other boy Jack."). No master, slave or pony boy is safe from Antoniou's gentle jabs. But I also see a love for her characters, and am already invested. Going back to read more!
