Lee Wyndam's work-related affairs lead to more frustration than he'd expected. Drawn to activism, his passion may finally blossom. His ex-boyfriend Brian Burns' foray into \"the oldest profession\" leads to a strange encounter. Ed Seabrook, Brian's spiritual boyfriend, Marcos Tierra, a sassy club kid, and Ritchie Hurst, a (mostly) straight sculptor, each have their lives forever changed by a tumultuous benefit protest.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67770979909920,"sku":"USED0595282563","price":115.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/61lg2rvK_ZL.jpg?v=1792014829","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/en-gb\/products\/monkey-suits-a-novel-0595282563-used","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
