Winter's Child by Margaret Maron
It's one month after their wedding, and the future looks bright for Judge Deborah Knott and Sheriff Deputy Dwight Bryant--until a disturbing call from Dwight's 8-year-old son Cal calls him back to Virginia.When he arrives, he is shocked to find that his ex-wife has left the boy alone for almost 24 hours. Worse, as Dwight tries to confront her, she takes the child and leaves town without a word. As Dwight embarks on an all-points search, Deborah hurries to his side. But will they be able to work together to decipher the ex-wife's motives--and, more importantly, will they find young Cal before he comes to harm?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.
