Produktbeschreibung
A celebrity psychic is murdered. A computer science student dies mysteriously. And Michigan's favorite college town will never be the same. It's fall in Ann Arbor and the locals are focused on their favorite blood sport: politics. Everyone is buzzing about the highly suspect mid-term elections. Everyone, that is, except freelance writer and recent widow Karin Niemi. All she wants is to be left alone with her cat, her work and her seemingly endless grief. But her best friend Bixie has other plans for her, plans that include a session with Dana Lewis, Ann Arbor's celebrity psychic and energy healer. Problem is, when Karin arrives for her appointment, she stumbles onto a murder scene. Soon, suspicion falls on Dana's daughter, Isabel-also a close friend of Bixie's. Before she knows it, Karin is drawn into a do-it-yourself murder investigation that leads her into the heart of a Big 10 University... the remarkably messy lives of Ann Arbor's social and political elite... the esoteric realm of black-hat geeks and black-box voting... and the treacherous currents of a very unwise sexual attraction. Within a short time, Karin, Bixie and their friend Paul are getting closer than they ever expected to the truth. In the process, they disrupt the lives of senior faculty, local politicos, police officials, social divas, celebrity surgeons, no-nonsense cops and, somewhere among them, a murderer. One who's prepared to strike again...this time on Karin's own doorstep.

Autorenporträt
Linda Fitzgerald grew up in Garrison Keillor country, in locales that ranged from the Twin Ports of Duluth-Superior to the mining and mill towns of Michigan's upper peninsula. After graduating from Northern Michigan University, she was lured downstate by a fellowship at the University of Michigan. With master's degree in hand and a national recession raging, she spent several years job hopping-doing brief stints as a junior magazine editor, a newspaper reporter, even a script writer for sales seminars-and consoled herself in off hours by devouring mysteries. Ultimately, she found her professional home as senior copywriter in an Ann Arbor ad agency and, from there, went on to launch her own one-woman firm. Thirty years and thousands of client projects later, she decided the time had come to take on a new challenge and revive a longtime, long-postponed personal goal: writing a mystery novel. She crossed that item off her life list with the publication of Death at the Doorstep, the debut adventure of Ann Arbor freelance writer and amateur sleuth Karin Niemi. Her second novel in the series, A Superior Way to Die, is set in the UP.
