In 1991, a maintenance worker at a Pennsylvania rest area discovered a man’s head in a trash barrel.
Even though he hadn’t touched blood, people suggested the worker should take an AIDS test. Green’s exceptional book opens with this moment, dropping the reader into early ‘90s AIDS panic and the brutal murders of a string of gay and bisexual men from Manhattan.
