About the Author

Margaret MaronUS

Margaret Maron was an American mystery novelist best known for two series: the Deborah Knott series, featuring a North Carolina judge, and the Lieutenant Sigrid Harald series, set in New York City. She won the Agatha, Anthony, Edgar, and Macavity awards in the same year (1993) for Bootlegger's Daughter, an achievement almost unparalleled in mystery fiction. Maron was born in Johnston County, North Carolina, and her deep roots in the American South infused her Deborah Knott novels with an authentic sense of region, family, and legal tradition. Read more →
