Acerca de esta escucha
A delicious story from an new voice in suspense, Lev AC Rosen's Lavender House is Knives Out with a queer historical twist.
Lavender House, 1952: the family seat of recently deceased matriarch Irene Lamontaine, head of the famous Lamontaine soap empire. Irene’s recipes for her signature scents are a well guarded secret—but it's not the only one behind these gates. This estate offers a unique freedom, where none of the residents or staff hide who they are. But to keep their secret, they've needed to keep others out. And now they're worried they're keeping a murderer in.
Irene’s widow hires Evander Mills to uncover the truth behind her mysterious death. Andy, recently fired from the San Francisco police after being caught in a raid on a gay bar, is happy to accept—his calendar is wide open. And his secret is the kind of secret the Lamontaines understand.
Andy had never imagined a world like Lavender House. He's seduced by the safety and freedom found behind its gates, where a queer family lives honestly and openly. But that honesty doesn't extend to everything, and he quickly finds himself a pawn in a family game of old money, subterfuge, and jealousy—and Irene’s death is only the beginning.
When your existence is a crime, everything you do is criminal, and the gates of Lavender House can’t lock out the real world forever. Running a soap empire can be a dirty business.

Historia
In the summer of 1894, John Addington and Henry Ellis begin writing a book arguing that homosexuality, which is a crime at the time, is a natural, harmless variation of human sexuality. Though they have never met, John and Henry both live in London with their wives, Catherine and Edith, and in each marriage, there is a third party: John has a lover, a working-class man named Frank, and Edith spends almost as much time with her friend Angelica as she does with Henry.

Historia
Out in the desert in a place called the Palace, a young man tends to a dying soul, someone he once knew briefly, but who has haunted the edges of his life. Juan Gay—playful raconteur, child lost and found and lost, guardian of the institutionalized—has a project to pass along. It is inspired by a true artifact of a book, Sex Variants: A Study in Homosexual Patterns, which contains stories collected in the early twentieth century from queer subjects by a queer researcher, Jan Gay, whose groundbreaking work was then co-opted by a committee, her name buried.

Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening, her husband, Gabriel, returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face and then never speaks another word.

Born into a wealthy Black Indianapolis family, Earl “Trey” Singleton III leaves his overbearing parents and their expectations behind by running away to New York City with only a few dollars in his pocket. Vibrant, humorous, and fraught with entanglements, Rasheed Newson’s My Government Means to Kill Me is an exhilarating, fast-paced coming-of-age story that lends itself to a larger discussion about what it means for a young gay Black man in the mid-1980s to come to terms with his role in the midst of a political and social reckoning.

It's 1949. When war veteran Aloysius Archer is released from Carderock Prison, he is sent to Poca City on parole with a short list of dos and a much longer list of don'ts: do report regularly to his parole officer, don't go to bars, certainly don't drink alcohol, do get a job - and don't ever associate with loose women. The small town quickly proves more complicated and dangerous than Archer's years serving in the war or his time in jail.

2022, Library Journal Best Books of the Year, Long-listed
2022, Amazon.com Best Books of the Year, Long-listed
"This is a beautiful, satisfying listen." –AudioFile
"Lev AC Rosen’s lushly rendered mystery, Lavender House, sets the detective novel on its head. There's the dishonored policeman sitting on a barstool in 1950's San Francisco and the elegant woman who slides in next to him with a job. But this femme's wife has been murdered, and the day-drinking cop has been brutally ousted from his job for being gay. Rosen’s smart, bittersweet tale plays with the oldest truth of all: the price we pay for our identity in America." –Walter Mosley
"Rosen’s deftly clued, noir-tinged plot successfully walks the line between hope and heartbreak, all while thoughtfully exploring the role of family in our lives. This fresh take on the classic private investigator begs to be brought to the big screen." –Library Journal, starred review

The Incrementalists - a secret society of 200 people with an unbroken lineage reaching back 40,000 years. They cheat death, share lives and memories, and communicate with one another across nations, races, and time. They have an epic history, an almost magical memory, and a very modest mission: to make the world better, just a little bit at a time. Their ongoing argument about how to do this is older than most of their individual memories. Phil, whose personality has stayed stable through more incarnations than anyone else’s, has loved Celeste - and argued with her - for most of the last 400 years.

Detective Chief Inspector Richard Jury arrives in Long Piddleton and finds everyone in the postcard village looking outside of town for the killer - except for one Melrose Plant....

"That book. It was about two women, and they fell in love with each other." And then Lily asked the question that had taken root in her, that was even now unfurling its leaves and demanding to be shown the sun: "Have you ever heard of such a thing?" Seventeen-year-old Lily Hu can't remember exactly when the question took root, but the answer was in full bloom the moment she and Kathleen Miller walked under the flashing neon sign of a lesbian bar called the Telegraph Club. America in 1954 is not a safe place for two girls to fall in love, especially not in Chinatown.

OMG so amazing
I've been saying this a lot lately, but this is a first for me by this author and narrator.
And I was blown away on how amazing this was.
I had seen this cover a few times and loved it, yes, I'm one of those people! That judge and buy a book by its cover.
I finally saw the audio and listen to the sample and hit the credit buy button before the sample was done.
This story is a mystery, yes. But so much more. It's set in the early 1950's and it took me a minute to get myself in that mindset of how the was story told. The wording, the thoughts, actions. But once I fell into it I was taken away into that house, that life.
I do have to add, I did FF during the beating I just couldn't handle it.
The twist of the who done it was very well done, and even though I kinda gues about half way through, I was still hooked until the end.
The narration... was probably the best I've every heard. I do not know anything about the narrator, but will look them up. The way they which voices. (Well, I'm assuming it was one person, not a dual narration)
Based on one, the way they changed from male to female, tipsy drunk to sad crying was phenomenal. I hope I can find more by this person.
I will also be looking up the rest of the authors work. I am officially hooked!.

Enjoyable
Liked the story although it did get a bit repetitive and was a bit predictable. My biggest complaint was with the narrator…he tried too hard to sound like a noir-style detective. - it was distracting. But, if you like mysteries and anything related to the queer experience, this isn’t a bad waste of your time.

I enjoyed the narrator and the writing a lot. It moved along quickly but read like a film noir movie especially with the narrators style and deep voice. I could really picture it well in my head and it played like a movie as I listened! Def recommend if you like a good mystery

4 and growing. If the 2nd book were
ready, I would buy it right now.
it's a little rough as first novels often
can be, but as I listened to it, I caught the author's rhythm.
So many characters that I kinda started
sliding by the few I
did not see as anything but window dressing.

Great narrator
This was a hard book to get through because I read it during the election. It’s hard as a queer person to read stories that show how grotesque people are to us. I liked the book even though hard to read. Not a fan of the F word being used throughout even to tell the narrative of how gross others are. It just hits different for me.

Queer Perfection
Not only was the narrator delightful but the story itself was gripping. I was incredibly moved by Evander (Andy) and his life as a gay detective. Lavender House provided an escape to a queer family that could not live openly. I found their stories as well as their love incredibly touching! I bawled at the ending and the genuine care I felt between the newly created family. I could not recommend this book enough 10000/10

For those of us of a certain age…
For those of us old enough to remember the bad old days, this has points that might be difficult to listen to, but the book is excellent. I’ve already bought the sequel.
