A woman's corpse is found floating in the bay with a law firm's business card, sealed in plastic, strung around her neck. Krug and Kellog have to solve the bizarre and gruesome murder... if they don't kill each other first. Be sure to catch the further adventures of Krug &amp; Kellog in the new, contemporary novel, THE LAST GOOD PLACE by ex-cop Robin Burcell, which brings the characters to present-day San Francisco. "An expert thriller," St. Louis Post-Dispatch "Weston writes smoothly and uses a good deal of sharp dialogue," New York Times "Hard-hitting and eminently readable," San Francisco Chronicle

A lost literary classic, back-in-print for the first time in sixty years, a powerful novel in the tradition of IN THE HEAT OF THE NIGHT and TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRDIt's 1959. Matthew Scott is a widowed, alcoholic reporter from New York who seeks personal and professional redemption when he's sent to the Deep South to write about a town that is defying a U.S. Supreme Court decision to integrate blacks into schools. His mere presence is a catalyst that ignites long-buried racial, political, religious, and personal conflicts among the residents, both white and black, ripping the town apart. Those tensions violently explode when Scott is falsely arrested by the bigoted, tyrannical sheriff for the rape and murder of an out-spoken black schoolteacher. This is a stunning, shockingly vivid portrait of a dark time in America's history, a tale of intolerance, bigotry and hope that's as relevant today as it was decades ago..."Jan Huckins and Carolyn Weston have a true ear for Southern speech, a sharp eye for Southern style, and an acute feeling for the South...they have treated eloquently a significant segment of the current Southern tragedy in perhaps the only way the sad tale can be told -- as fiction with a heavy beat of melodrama." Arkansas Gazette"An exciting melodrama dealing with integration in the South...a thorough examination of southern racial attitudes. The book has the power to move and enlighten reader." Los Angeles Times"A vivid portrait of a community...a moving story filled with passion and pathos, and a little joy. The final effect is a telling denunciation of racial prejudice." Arizona Daily Star"Written in a smooth, expert style, [with] a plot that outdoes Faulkner in imagination." Dan Wakefield for The Saturday Review"This intense novel will hold your interest and send you racing from page to page as you observe an almost imperceptible change in a bigoted small town" Napa Valley Star"This is an especially thought-provoking novel, sympathetic to black and white, and written with admirable objectivity." Pittsburgh Courier
