Produktbeschreibung
"A witty and affectionate view of the new South-and especially, the new South's new woman," writes the San Diego Union-Tribune of Margaret Maron's award-winning Deborah Knott mystery series. From its first book, Bootlegger's Daughter, which swept every major mystery writing award, this series has been extraordinary-winning a greater audience and brilliantly evolving in content and style. Now, in the seventh book in the series, sexual tension, illicit love, and brutal murder entangle and explode in Deborah Knott's life . . . Hurricanes rarely make it inland as far as Colleton County, North Carolina. When they do, people remember them as events that mark an entire generation. Domestic storms, on the other hand, hit with regularity, so when the scantily clad body of a promiscuous wife is found in a motel, the murder resounds like a thunderclap through the community. With her handsome cousin a suspect in the murder, Judge Deborah Knott soon uncovers a web of secret and illicit affairs that stretches from the African-American church community to Deborah's own family. Then the killer strikes again, even as a real-life killer storm rages up the Carolina coast. Mesmerizing, psychologically complex, and cleverly plotted, STORM TRACK is great, powerful fiction . . . and Margaret Maron is at her best.
Autorenporträt
MARGARET MARON grew up on a farm near Raleigh, North Carolina, but for many years lived in Brooklyn, New York. When she returned to her North Carolina roots with her artist-husband, Joe, she began a series based on her own background. The first book, Bootlegger's Daughter, became a Washington Post best-seller that swept the major mystery awards for its year and is among the 100 Favorite Mysteries of the Century as selected by the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association. Later Deborah Knott novels Up Jumps the Devil, Storm Track, and Three-Day Town each won the Agatha Award for Best Novel. In 2008, Maron received the North Carolina Award for Literature, the state's highest civilian honor. And in 2013, The Mystery Writers of America celebrated Maron's contributions to the mystery genre by naming her a Grand Master-an honor first bestowed on Agatha Christie. In 2016, she was inducted into the North Carolina Literary Hall of Fame. To find out more about the author, you can visit MargaretMaron.com. Ebooks are available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble.
