ISBN 1-593090-030-7
From the author of Fire & Brimstone comes a novel whose reverberations can be felt in every strata of society and whose story will resonate deeply with all readers.
This unconventional, deeply affecting novel about life choices gives new meaning to the term UnderCover.
When the story opens, Nathaniel Chamberlain Alexander, a.k.a. “Miss Nay,” is the monogamous lover of Patrick, a patron of the Memphis nightclub where Nathaniel transforms himself into a female diva before a standing-room-only crowd. Then one night, as the result of a deathbed promise to his dying mama, Patrick breaks up with Nathaniel. Devastated by his lover’s rejection, Nathaniel leaves his flamboyant former life behind and reinvents himself yet again.
Several years later, Nathaniel is a committed family man—a loving husband to his wife and devoted father to his three children. Patrick is a distant, still-seductive memory…until financial woes force Nathaniel to return to his old fast-money way of life. This fateful decision culminates in exposure—and Nathaniel’s subsequent downward spiral. Domestic crises abound as Nathaniel struggles with painful issues surrounding his sexual identity, and he must face the ultimate truth about himself in a harrowing climax. With its searing portrayal of a man living a lie, and how his choices have an impact on those he loves, UnderCover depicts a world under the still-devastating shadow of AIDS. It is a powerhouse novel by a gifted storyteller.
