Naked Came the Detective

In many murder mysteries, the call girl gets killed. This novella turns that tired trope on its head.
A skilled and versatile sex worker learns that one of her clients, a prominent businessman, was brutally murdered just hours after their last date. With her unique access to the upper echelon of Washington D.C. society, she embarks on an investigation that leads to a shocking discovery.
Glendall C. Jackson III, an award-winning non-fiction writer, creates a vivid portrait of high-end sex work.
