Why This Must Be Read: I've been saving this one, because it's a long read. I'll tell you right now to set aside some time. Luckily, the monster epic AU that is "Greg Sanders Private Dick" is split up into several individual stories, each one complete. You could read Case Files 1-5 and be a happy fangirl/boy. (The sex scenes alone are pretty scorching). They are like the cake and everything afterward the icing. Delicious, delicious icing.

Now this is a historical AU so you might be thinking, "A gay couple and a happy ending don't seem compatible in a historical setting" but this isn't your usual historical AU. It features some realistic elements, but mostly it goes for *fun*. "Why?" you might then wonder, well because whenever canon!Greg starts to talk to himself like a Raymond Chandler/noir detective it is a moment of pure awesome. Why not have more of that?

It's post-war, 1940's Las Vegas. Greg (Greg!) is a tough guy, smart alecky private detective. Nick (Nick!) is a shady nightclub owner in the employ of Sam Braun. Warrick is a piano player. Sara's a librarian and a cranky Girl Friday, and Grissom is a bartender (who studies bugs on the side). And Brass is there. (I have to confess to an inappropriate Brass crush in these stories. Brass! He never stops being amazing, canon or otherwise.) The cases are dark and follow the usual noir mystery trends, Greg is a man with a past, and CSI guest stars make appearances as victims and villains.
