✦ Synopsis

Product Description

With a steamy Southern plot and a sassy new heroine, this Edgar Award winning novel debuts an exceptional new series. Attorney Deborah Knott is North Carolinas answer to V.I. Warshawski, a legal sleuth with a knack for sniffing out the most baffling crimes. Deborah has just done the unthinkableentered the heated race for judge of old-boy-ruled Colleton County. The only female candidate, shes busy reeling in voters and giving campaign speeches. There couldnt be a worse time for Gayle Whitehead to beg Deborah to investigate the 18-year-old, unsolved murder of Gayles mother, Janie. Gayle wants the busy attorney to poke around for any new clues the police may have missed all these years. Unlikely, thinks Deborah; until she discovers that not all the details of Janies case made it out of confidential police files. Filled with the patter of Southern voices and populated with a cast of colorful characters, Bootleggers Daughter expertly unwinds a funny, cunningly-crafted tale of mystery and deceit in North Carolinas backwoods.
