Rituals of the Season by Margaret Maron
Only days away from her wedding to Deputy Sheriff Dwight Bryant, Judge Deborah Knott has more than enough worries to keep her busy. With her sisters-in-law dissecting every detail of the ceremony, her brothers making book on whether her very pregnant matron of honour will be in the church or in labour, her house torn up by carpenters and plumbers, and Dwight's young son expected for Christmas, Deborah doesn't need a murder on her wedding plate as well - but that's exactly what she gets.MARGARET MARON grew raised in the country near Raleigh, North Carolina, then moved to Brooklyn, New York, for a number of years. She began a series based on her own past when she and her artist husband returned to the farm that had been in her family for a century. The first novel, Bootlegger's Daughter, was a Washington Post bestseller that won all of the major mystery honors for the year, including the Edgar, Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity Awards for Best Novel, and was named one of the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association's 100 Favorite Mysteries of the Century. Up Jumps the Devil, Storm Track, and Three-Day Town, all later Deborah Knott novels, earned the Agatha Award for Best Novel. Margaret is also the creator of the Sigrid Harald mystery series.
Maron was honored with the North Carolina Award for Literary in 2008, the state's highest civilian honor. Maron's achievements to the mystery genre were recognized in 2013 when the Mystery Writers of America named her a Grand Master, an distinction first conferred on Agatha Christie.
