The Ballad of Jimothy Redwing

Wand'ring Minstrel Jimothy Redwing is used to life on the road, delivering messages and performing music. He's also accustomed to occasional trysts with amenable strangers. Ricky Lennox is smart, funny, handsome, and very amenable. He makes it clear that the night they spent together left him wanting more. That "more" becomes complicated when Jimothy learns Ricky's true identity. Usually the anonymous messenger, Jimothy never suspects a letter he carries could impact him directly. But a potential political coup means danger for the lovers; both become targets of violent attacks. Together they must discover the conspirators and bring them to justice.
