Publisher Description

Best-selling author Margaret Maron is a winner of the Edgar, Anthony, Agatha, Macavity, and American Mystery Awards. Her captivating mysteries feature quick-witted Deborah Knott, a lawyer, district judge, and devout North Carolinian. At the annual Harvest Festival carnival, while everyone else is playing games and having fun, someone commits murder. As Deborah investigates, she must struggle to win a carny's confidence while a dark web of dangerous secrets begins to unravel.

"Another fine Deborah Knott story, and her convoluted family tree keeps getting knottier (get it?) - there is a reason Maron offers a detailed chart on her website. One begins to wonder why the good Judge doesn't try moving away from home, since there isn't a crime in the District that doesn't involve one of her relatives. Maron again does a fantastic job of involving all the senses in her settings; not only can one smell the popcorn, but almost certainly the lingering whiff of stale beer and vomit under the Zipper. I kept turning up the air conditioner during this read."

    " The Deborah Knott series is good - about a female judge who somehow always helps figure out a crime. Not too disgustingly graphic with the murders or romance scenes. Just a nice read with likeable characters and intereting circumstances. "

    " Maron gets her POV problems (mostly) under control in this one, and the issues of family and responsibility in the plot overrode any of the lingering POV problems. Among my favorites of the Deborah Knott novels. "
