First Lady by Michael Malone
Multi-award winning author Michael Malone returns to Hillstown, North Carolina, the setting of his internationally acclaimed Uncivil Seasons and Time's Witness. A woman's body has been found - mutilated, tagged and addressed to Lt Justin Savile V and Police Chief Cuddy R. Mangum. Dubbed the 'Guess Who Killer' by a voracious press, Hillstown in North Carolina has a serial killer on its hands. The media and major demand answers while the city lives in fear. Savile and Mangum are being taunted, stalked and threatened with losing all they hold dear - and yet they have no leads...
- 'Michael Malone has returned with a book which confirms his reputation as a first rate novelist' Sunday Telegraph - 'This is an award-bound tale of mischief and compassion.' Guardian - 'A stylish gift for language... tender and believable... the characters come alive' Washington Post Book World - 'The Hammet-Chandler tradition is alive and well... all the right laconic flicks of humour, all the right humanity under the slick quickness that the old masters employed' H R F Keating
Michael Malone is hailed as one of the South's - if not America's - greatest writers, and has been awarded the O. Henry award, the Writers Guild award, the Edgar and the Emmy. He has written five previous novels, many short stories, and scripts for television series. He lives in Hillsborough in his native North Carolina with his wife Maureen Quilligan.
