: Why study queer detective novels? This question is answered through an examination of the similarities between the tasks of solving crime and decoding sexual identity. Diverse modes of code reading employed in detective narratives are untangled, exposing their structural relationships to the investigative work of interpreting and categorizing ambiguous sexualities. The author’s analysis includes Thea Dorn’s Berliner Aufklärung (Berlin Enlightenment, 1994).

Isabel Franc's thought-provoking No me llames carino (2004) portrays a society where men who perpetrate domestic violence, subsequently succeed in evading the justice system, and run the risk of paying a very high price. By parodying the crime genre, the author provides an example of how lesbian detective fiction transgresses generic convention and draws the reader's attention to social injustices. In 2003, 50,088 women in Spain reported being victims of domestic violence at the hands of their partner or ex-partner. The vast majority of women fail to report such incidences. At least 417 women have died as victims of domestic violence in the last five years in Spain. Other deaths are not included: prostitutes, victims of sexual assault, cases of suicide and other alleged incidents.
