===LGBT crime fiction===
[[LGBT]] has also left its mark on the genre of crime fiction. Numerous private eyes—professionals as well as amateurs—are now women, some of them [[lesbian]]s. Tally McGinnis, for example, is the young gay heroine of a series of novels by U.S. author [[Nancy Sanra]] (born 1944). Sanra's Tally McGinnis mysteries, such as ''No Escape'' (1998), which is set in [[San Francisco]], are quite traditional in other respects. In Britain, Scottish-born [[Val McDermid]] created lesbian journalist-cum-sleuth Lindsay Gordon, and [[Joan Smith (novelist and journalist)|Joan Smith]] (born 1953) has gained popularity as the author of a series of Loretta Lawson novels. Lawson is a university teacher and an amateur sleuth. In ''[[Full Stop (novel)|Full Stop]]'' (1995), she stops over at [[New York, New York|New York]] and is quickly devoured by the city. Seattle writer [[Barbara Wilson (American author)|Barbara Wilson]] published Murder in the Collective and other crime books with LGBT characters.
