What an engaging read while taking the reader on an emotional roller-coaster. Post-Katrina is written with the type of detail that makes a person not only feel what people are going through but visualize. Mickey is loss as are most of her friends. Some are dealing better than others. Cordelia is working to deal with the after effect of staying in a desolated hospital and her affair. This read has much going on with Katrina, Mickey, Mickey's friends, and the future of her relationship with Cordel ...more

Synopsis: It’s just one more body in one more destroyed house. In New Orleans, a few months after Katrina, there are thousands of destroyed houses and hundreds of body yet to be found. Can one more matter? It d

A new Micky Knight. That always makes me happy. Micky Knight novels were one of the first I discovered when I found out that lesbian novels existed after I came out oh so many, many years ago. she rocked my world back then. She wasn't PC, she wasn't always nice, she could swear with the best of them.

She is still, so many years later, all of that. But so many more layers have been added to her story.

Sometimes funny, sometimes very painful to read I always enjoy getting back to this universe.

What can I say, this is excellent, as I have come to expect from JM Redmann and Micky Knight. It takes place in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina and Redmann gives us the devastation--to the city and to the lives of those who live and love there. The mystery is also fascinating, but the relationship between Micky and Cordelia is what this is all about (though it took forever to get to it). It made me want to go back and read all the books again with an eye on Cordelia, because the first read th ...more

I am a great fan of the Micky Knight series of books, especially the first 3 books, not just because I find Micky Knight an unforgettable character, but also because of the secondary characters, which are interesting and well developed, and the NOLA setting, which almost feels like an extra character. I was bitterly disappointed by Death of a Dying Man, the previous book in the series. At the time I was reading it, I remember thinking that J.M. Redmann should have ended the series with Lost Daug ...more

I'm a Micky Knight addict, all right! "Water Mark" took ages to read because there's so much pain in it; Micky's going through a double hell, as it is. This is an absolutely wonderful novel, despite all the pain . . . or maybe because of it. ...more
