In 1998 in New Orleans, elderly affluent Cyril Jessup orders gossip columnist Margo Fortier to come see him at his mansion. He shows her a picture from three decades ago in which she and three other strippers are with his son, a soldier who died in Viet Nam shortly after the photo was taken. Now Glen Charles Watley claims to be his grandson, sired with one of the girls in the photograph. Glen has DNA testing affirming his assertion. Cyril hires Margo to investigate which of the two other white girls is Glen's mother; he eliminated the black female and Margo's history is easy to find out.
In 1970, Margo, Coffee, Patsy and Conchita stripped as well as tended bar at Madame Julie's. They befriended a soldier Gerald who was deploying shortly to Vietnam. .By the end of the month, they went their separate ways. When Glen's former girlfriend from Minnesota shows up and is murdered, Margo wonders why.
Home Dead for Christmas is an entertaining historical tale that evolves in the latter half into a murder mystery. The story line looks deeply at the French Quarter at a time when silicon had a different meaning than in 1998 (and today). With an enjoyable late twist that fans will anticipate, readers fans will relish Tony Fenelly's fine historical thriller as 1970 and 1998 come across vividly yet so differently.

This is the Margo Fortier Mystery Series by Tony Fennelly. This is fun and comic. The writing is sarcastic but comfortable. It gives us a chance to laugh. In the series, Margo is married to a gay man and they are both on the prowl for the perfect man.
Tony Fennelley's new novel evokes both the New Orleans of today and the (rather seedier) Big Easy of 40 years ago, when The French Quarter was a raucous and slightly dangerous mix of bars, cabarets and jazz joints. (And of course, strip clubs too, where even some "nice" girls took up stripping to earn their college tuition.) Tony matches that up (almost chapter-for-chapter) with today's post-Katrina anything's-possible-now attitude that links the richest of the rich with the crazy and conniving who have always lurked in the town's shadows. Some readers may "solve the mystery" ahead of Margo, the narrator; but will nonetheless relish the evoked atmosphere, and the wonderful (and wonderfully nutty) characters that populate this refreshing story.
Good view of New Orleans, alternating between 1970 and 1998. Good murder mystery. Who is killing the friends of the rich Garden District family's long lost grandson? Does the reason lie in the Sin City days? Recommended.
