We're discussing Bootlegger's Daughter tomorrow for our mystery discussion group. Congrats to Margaret Maron for continuing to write award winners!

I'm so happy that Margaret Maron's book won. I have been reading her Deborah Knott books since their inception. Three Day Town was interesting because she had Sigrid Harald in a secondary role. One of these days, I'm going to read all of the Sigrid Harald books, but for now, I'm just happy that Margaret was recognized for her writing.
You're timing is perfect, Katherine, in reading one of Margaret Maron's books.
Bev,
I'm a big fan of the Sigrid Harald books. Those are the ones I really like.
Someone at my discussion mentioned that the Sigrid Harald series is her favorite. Looking forward to reading One Coffee With.
Oh, good, Katherine. I hope you enjoy it. Sigrid is my favorite.
