Synopsis
Til death do us part... Marcy Addwatter killed her husband — there's no question about that. Shot him dead in the motel room where he was trysting with a blonde hooker. Shot the hooker, too.
But where the cops might see an open-and-shut case, private eye Michael Tree — Ms. Michael Tree — sees a conspiracy. For Ms. Tree, digging into it could mean digging her own grave... and digging up her own murdered husband's.
Based on the longest-running private-eye comic book series of all time, Deadly Beloved brings you an all-new adventure of the legendary Ms. Tree — the groundbreaking female P.I. who put the 'graphic' into graphic novel.
Max Collins was hailed in 2004 by Publisher's Weekly as "a new breed of writer." A frequent Mystery Writers of America "Edgar" nominee, he has earned an unprecedented fifteen Private Eye Writers of America "Shamus" nominations for historical thrillers, winning for his Nathan Heller novels, True Detective (1983) and Stolen Away (1991).
