Everyone comes to Reggie's on a Sunday: ballet dancers and cabinet ministers, left-over Mosleyites alongside flamboyant homosexuals like Freddie Buckingham. And when Freddie turns up dead on the Heath one Sunday night there is no shortage of suspects. "War Damage" is both a high-class thriller and a wonderful evocation of Britain staggering back to its feet after the privations of the War. And in Regine Milner it possesses a truly memorable heroine. She's full of secrets - just what did happen in Shanghai before the war? - and surprises - Reggie's living proof that sexual experimentation was alive and well long before the sixties. 650 0 $a Gay men $x Crimes against $v Fiction. 651 0 $a London (England) $x Social conditions $y 20th century $v Fiction. 650 7 $a Gay men $x Crimes against. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00939126 650 7 $a Social conditions $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919811 651 7 $a England $z London. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204271 648 7 $a 1900 - 1999 $2 fast 655 7 $a Fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423787 655 7 $a Suspense fiction. $2 gsafd 941 $a 2 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180119054248.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20160909011757.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=64CF74E8498811E69915C3E2DAD10320 994 $a Z0 $b LJWInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
