Críticas:

"Smartly written"-- The New York Times on The Buzzard Table

"[A] winning entry and a fine holiday mystery."-- Booklist on CHRISTMAS MOURNING

"There's nobody better."-- Chicago Tribune

"Smartly written" "The New York Times on The Buzzard Table""

"As always, Maron skillfully layers an absorbing plot with the doings of Deborah's large extended family and the domestic details of their semirural lifestyle. In addition, the contrast between Deborah, who is warm and caring, and Sigrid, who is reserved and cerebral, gives Maron's tale added depth." "Booklist on The Buzzard Table""

"Maron...adroitly melds ugly American (open) government secrets with classic whodunit intrigue and stirs the pot by itemizing domestic travails that will touch readers' hearts." "Kirkus Reviews on The Buzzard Table""

"In Maron's intriguing 18th Deborah Knott mystery...Maron successfully combine a look at family foibles and relationships with a series of moral choices that challenges the characters' sense of law and justice." "Publishers Weekly on The Buzzard Table""

"This book has plenty of suspense and the characters are well done. One of Ms. Maron's strengths is the believability of her characters. They add to the story and don't distract the reader with useless red herrings. As usual, the interplay between Dwight and Deborah is wonderfully romantic even in the midst of a murder. I have to say that I will be glad to see them back home in the next book. I just love the family dynamics and the southern ambiance in these books. Can't wait for the next book in the series!!" "--- imainlinefiction.blogspot.com on THREE-DAY TOWN""

"Dwight's obsession with New York gourmet delights and Deborah's passion for stylish, impractical footwear are charming, but Sigrid's slow but steady police work carries the day. Fans who have hankered for Deborah and Sigrid to find themselves in the same story will be charmed." "Kirkus on THREE-DAY TOWN""

"This is a strong addition to a series that's won Edgar, Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity awards." "Publishers Weekly on THREE-DAY TOWN""
