February, 1949. Fort Myers, Florida. Dan Ewing is the manager of the Caloosa Hotel, a class act if your passing through, but if you're a member of the all-male Caloosa Club, the hotel will cater to your very special - very private - needs. Meanwhile, Bud Wright is the town's hotshot police detective, a man whose passionate desire for Dan is in stark conflict with his desire to shut Dan's business down. But when one poor black man and one wealthy white man are suddenly killed in an apparent murder suicide, and the Caloosa Club comes under fire, Dan and Bud find themselves together up against not only local business but political and religious leaders, as one town's many deeply hidden secrets come tumbling out of the closet. A unique mix of gay, mystery and historical fiction, IT TAKES TWO offers a fascinating and thrilling exploration of the various factions of a small southern town facing the giant implications of a rapidly changing society.
