Killer Market — Margaret Maron

SHE'S ONE OF THE SOUTH'S NEW WOMEN.
A FEISTY NORTH CAROLINA JUDGE.... AND A PRIME SUSPECT IN A CHILLING CASE OF MURDER.

The Honorable Deborah Knott could kill for a good night's sleep. She arrives in High Point, North Carolina, dead tired, only to discover the International Home Furnishings Market has taken over the town. Outside of 'a showroom, there's not a bed to be found. Soon Deborah is depending on the kindness of strangers. She should have known better than to let a mysterious old woman guide her into a furniture display featuring a murdered man, whose past is secretly entangled with Deborah's own. Now she knows there's something low down and dirty in High Point: a clever frame-up that could send a judge to jail ... or the grave.
