Beschreibung
Fine condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color photographic dust jacket. Includes Author Dedication and Acknowledgments. Signed by the author with thin black Sharpie on the full title page. "If you are a Susan Isaacs fan, you will love Linda Lee Peterson's journalist cum-sleuth, Maggie Fiori. This is a San Fransisco and Oakland story with sparks flying as wisecracking Fiori, with her razor-sharp wit and rampant curiostiy, sets out to find out who killed her editor boss. I couldn't put the book down. A very satisfying read for mystery lovers." - Jacqueline WInspear, Agatha award winning mystery author. "Edited to Death is an exceptional debut. With an engaging protagonist and a likeable cast, Linda Peterson brings a fresh new voice to a crowded field." - Sheldon Siegel, New York Times best-selling author. "Edited to Death is laugh-out-loud funny, poignant, and gripping. Maggie Fiori is a wonderful new character in detective fiction." - Robert Heilbrun, Edgar-nominated author. "If Maggie FIori doesn't have it all, she's got plenty: A handsome attorney husband, two beautiful sons, and a comfortable life in Oakland, justs across the bridge from Everybody's Favorite City. Add in a love-lorn Scandinavian au pair to help with child care, and writing assignments from lox to literature at San Francisco's chi-chi city magazine, Small Town, and it all adds up to a pretty sweet deal. But Maggie's smart mouth and everyday life as a loving wife and mother camouflage a secret. The camouflage comes off after murder strikes the magazine, and Maggie is in the investigation up to her Emerald City eyeballs. There are more secrets afoot at the magazine, plus memorable characters, including a preppy African-American photographer, who's a sucker for beautiful clothes and beautiful women, an Irish editor who left the priesthood for a wife and five kids, and a Korean-American homicide cop who reads Neruda and plays ice hockey on the side. In a city famous for "small town" connections, this debut mystery races from Pacific Heights to hip and cool SOMA, from city magazine to a legendary North Beach bookstore. There's stylish writing, and only-in-San Francisco plot, and the story of a smart woman who made a dumb decision -- and decided to fix it herself." - from the inner front jacket flap.
