It's taken almost a year, but Tai Randolph has her new life together. She's running a Atlanta gun shop catering to Civil War re-enactors. There's not a single corpse on her horizon, and her previously haphazard existence is finally stable, secure... and unsurprising. Then a tornado blows through, scattering the skeletal remains of a Confederate hero. Assisting the bones recovery effort is a job her late Uncle Dexter would have relished, as does Tai. But the bones reveal a more recent murder, with her deceased uncle as the primary suspect. As Tai struggles to clear Dexter's name she uncovers more deadly secrets, and realizes there's a murderer on the loose. A clever killer who has tried to conceal the crimes of the present in the stories of the past. As she risks her own life to unravel two mysteries-one from a previous century, one literally at her doorstep-Tai rediscovers her dangerous taste for murder and mayhem. Tina Whittle is a mystery writer living and working in the Georgia Low Country. The Dangerous Edge of Things, her first novel, debuted February 2011 from Poisoned Pen Press, followed in March 2012 by Darker Than Any Shadow. www.tinawhittle.com
