BARBARA WILSON

CHARACTER:	PAM NILSEN
CATEGORY:	LESBIAN DETECTIVES

Pam Nilsen and her sister have inherited a print shop in Seattle, which they now run as a collective. Through various unfortunate turns of events, Nilsen finds herself in a position to investigate murder in the leftwing women's community. Wilson uses these mysteries to explore issues in feminism, which is much more entertaining than it sounds.

Cassandra Reilly is a Spanish translator based in London. She wanders around Europe, encountering unusual murders. Less didactic than the Pam Nilsen books, this series is none the less marked by Wilson's articulate exploration of political issues.
