Editorial Review:Poison pens can draw blood. And that's exactly why TV presenter Rebecca Jones hires private eye Kit O'Malley to investigate the threats against her. But the trouble with being tenacious, tough, and too smart for her own good is that everybody else wants her on their team.
As if trying to keep Rebecca alive and on the air wasn't enough, Kit is beset by a clutch of other people's catastrophes that require her very particular skills to resolve. And since Kit is the gumshoe who can't say no, before she knows it, she is up to her eyes in the worst that Australia's criminal minds can throw her way.
Money laundering, sordid sexual shenanigans, abduction, political sleaze, and murder among Melbourne's movers and shakers threaten to swamp Kit as she picks her way through the morass of double-dealing, treachery, and outright greed. As if that's not enough, the beautiful and sexy Alex Casenove sweeps back into her life, reminding Kit that love is almost as deadly as hate and that murder never happens at a convenient time.
The sequel to the highly acclaimed debut Blood Guilt, Bleeding Hearts is a tightly plotted romp through the dark underbelly of Australia's most cultured city, vibrantly demonstrating that even the heartless bleed.
Customer Reviews
Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Formulaic, juvenile, unoriginal, laden w/cliches & corny dialogue
I wanted to enjoy this but confess only sore disappointment. Lots of tiresome filler fleshes out a silly and weak plot. In order to find the individual harassing her new client, the main character, a Private Detective, unrealistically decides to meet with everyone her client interacts. This is an intellectually lazy (or more likely incompetent) way for the author to introduce loads of unnecessary characters (filler) to stretch out a thin plot. Juvenile swearing and exclamations front for witty repartee. ... Read More
Rating:  - Another Good Read from Cameron's Kit Mystery
After reading Lindy Cameron's Blood Guilt (Kit O'Malley Mystery Series), I had been waiting for the next installment of Kit O'Malley Mystery. Turned out hat this book, Bleeding Hearts, was worth waiting.
The story starts weeks after the end of the previous book, when Kit's business seems going well. However, things are more complicate than what they appear above the surface. Here Lindy Cameron presents an intriguing story with twisted plots and interesting characters (including minor ones). ... Read More
Rating: - (4 1/2 stars) An excellent mystery
"Bleeding Hearts", is the sequel to the excellent "Blood Guilt", where we were introduced to the former police officer and now private investigator Kit O' Malley. Unlike a lot of characters we find lately in lesbian fiction, who are larger than life, Kit O'Malley strikes us as an everyday person, maybe just more cultured that the average, and that only through her profession gets involved in out of the ordinary situations. Just like in Lindy Cameron's previous book we are once again offered a complex plot, ... Read More
Rating: - Another great book from Cameron
Lindy Cameron is emerging as one of the most enjoyable mystery writers in the genre. Her characters are well developed and funny, while her plots are intricate. Though you may have suspicions about "who done it," they won't be confirmed until the end of the book and then you'll probably be wrong. In the meantime you'll have quite a romp with Kit O'Malley and her collection of friends.
In Bleeding Hearts, Kit is surrounded by more mysteries than she almost knows how to deal with. Political scandal, ... Read More
Rating: - Hooray for Kit!
