Holocaust by Nicola Ditty (PG)
Fandom: STARSKY & HUTCH
Pairing: none

Author Website: her gen is preserved here, while her slash is sheltered here.
Why this must be read:
In this unique story, nothing is what you expect it to be. Instead of its conventional meaning, holocaust here signifies a burnt offering or sacrifice. Starsky’s survival post-Sweet Revenge also doesn’t have the repercussions we’ve come to expect within gen or slash fanfic. Instead, Nik confronts us with the ugly side of recovery, specifically the self-destructive isolation of supporting a loved one through a long, painful recuperation.
Nonetheless, this is a story of hope, even though the journey there takes us down another road less traveled in this fandom. Instead of the traditional view of Starsky and Hutch as a self-sufficient relationship, rescue comes from outside their tight partnership. Nicola’s Huggy Bear not only shines as a fully-realized character, but he also provides credible, much needed back-up for a tormented Hutch.
Love it or hate it, Holocaust is a powerful story that will challenge your beliefs about the world of Starsky and Hutch.
