Though the cover blurb suggests otherwise, there's hardly any mystery to Coming Out Can Be Murder. Author Renee James dispatches the climactic moment with a minimum of suspense—wham, bam, thank you, ma'am. It's what constitutes "ma'am" that forms the book's real theme: protagonist Bobbi Logan is, like James herself, a transgender woman. They also share similar professional interests. James is a licensed cosmetologist, and Bobbi a hairdresser.
