The first Deborah Knott novel, Bootlegger's Daughter, received all four of the major mystery awards, and the series has grown stronger and more popular with each new book. Now New York Times bestselling author Margaret Maron has gathered some of Deborah's shorter adventures in Tales From Colleton County. Here you'll find a dozen stories of mystery and mayhem beginning with the very first tale from Colleton County, North Carolina, and concluding with a never-before-published Deborah Knott story. From the courtroom to church, from holidays to nuptials, Judge Deborah Knott, the bootlegger's daughter, continues to entertain us. 'She is one of the most seamless Southern writers since Margaret Mitchell.' Publishers Weekly 3
