THE BUZZARD TABLE
Judge Deborah Knott and her husband, Sheriff's Deputy Dwight Bryant, are back home in Colleton County amid family and old friends. But the winter winds have blown in several new faces as well. Lt. Sigrid Harald and her mother, Anne, a well-known photographer, are down from New York to visit Mrs. Lattimore, Anne's dying mother. When the group gathers for dinner at Mrs. Lattimore's Victorian home, they meet the enigmatic Martin Crawford, an ornithologist researching a book on Southern vultures. He's also Mrs. Lattimore's long-lost nephew. With her health in decline, Mrs. Lattimore wants to make amends with her family-a desire Deborah can understand, as she, too, works to strengthen her relationship with her young stepson, Cal.
Anne is charmed by her mysterious cousin, but she cannot shake the feeling that there is something familiar about Martin . . . something he doesn't want her or anyone else to discover. When a string of suspicious murders sets Colleton County on edge, Deborah, Dwight, and Sigrid once again work together to catch a killer, uncovering long-buried family secrets along the way.

From Booklist
In the eighteenth Deborah Knott mystery, the North Carolina judge once again appears with Maron’s other series lead, New York police detective Sigrid Harald, just as in Three-Day Town (2011). Sigrid has come to Cotton Grove with her award-winning photographer mother, Anne Lattimore Harald, to visit Sigrid’s ailing grandmother. A passionate young protester arrested for attempting to photograph CIA flights out of the local Colleton County airport, a secretive ornithologist, and a promiscuous local realtor bludgeoned to death in one of her properties combine to keep the small-town judge and her sheriff husband, Dwight Bryant, hopping. When a pilot is murdered, and the FBI takes over the investigation, Sigrid offers her able assistance to Dwight to figure out exactly what international intrigue is taking place right in his own backyard. As always, Maron skillfully layers an absorbing plot with the doings of Deborah’s large extended family and the domestic details of their semirural lifestyle. In addition, the contrast between Deborah, who is warm and caring, and Sigrid, who is reserved and cerebral, gives Maron’s tale added depth. --Joanne Wilkinson

"As always, Maron skillfully layers an absorbing plot with the doings of Deborah's large extended family and the domestic details of their semirural lifestyle. In addition, the contrast between Deborah, who is warm and caring, and Sigrid, who is reserved and cerebral, gives Maron's tale added depth."―Booklist
"Maron...adroitly melds ugly American (open) government secrets with classic whodunit intrigue and stirs the pot by itemizing domestic travails that will touch readers' hearts."―Kirkus Reviews
"In Maron's intriguing 18th Deborah Knott mystery...Maron successfully combine a look at family foibles and relationships with a series of moral choices that challenges the characters' sense of law and justice."―Publishers Weekly
"This book has plenty of suspense and the characters are well done. One of Ms. Maron's strengths is the believability of her characters. They add to the story and don't distract the reader with useless red herrings. As usual, the interplay between Dwight and Deborah is wonderfully romantic even in the midst of a murder. I have to say that I will be glad to see them back home in the next book. I just love the family dynamics and the southern ambiance in these books. Can't wait for the next book in the series!!"―imainlinefiction.blogspot.com on THREE-DAY TOWN
"Dwight's obsession with New York gourmet delights and Deborah's passion for stylish, impractical footwear are charming, but Sigrid's slow but steady police work carries the day. Fans who have hankered for Deborah and Sigrid to find themselves in the same story will be charmed."―Kirkus on THREE-DAY TOWN
"This is a strong addition to a series that's won Edgar, Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity awards."―Publishers Weekly on THREE-DAY TOWN

About the Author
MARGARET MARON grew up in the country near Raleigh, North Carolina, but for many years lived in Brooklyn, New York. When she and her artist husband returned to the farm that had been in her family for a hundred years, she began a series based on her own background. The first book, Bootlegger's Daughter, became a Washington Post bestseller that swept the major mystery awards for its year-winning the Edgar, Agatha, Anthony, and Macavity Awards for Best Novel-and is among the 100 Favorite Mysteries of the Century as selected by the Independent Mystery Booksellers Association. Later Deborah Knott novels Up Jumps the Devil, Storm Track, and Three-Day Town each also won the Agatha Award for Best Novel. Margaret is also the author of the Sigrid Harald series of detective novels. In 2008, Maron received the North Carolina Award for Literature, the highest civilian honor the state bestows on its authors. And in 2013, the Mystery Writers of America celebrated Maron's contributions to the mystery genre by naming her a Grand Master-an honor first bestowed on Agatha Christie.

a more generous slice of life in Deborah Knott's world
By Julia Walker
I've loved Margaret Maron's Deborah Knott series from the beginning, valuing her keen ear for dialogue, her sense of place, and her gift for seeing both the old and the new South as they uneasily coexist. The Colleton County books are light-years better than the books in distant settings, but all of them are too short.
Maron writes single-plot mysteries. Oh sure, there's generally a bit of parallel silliness that gets worked out along with the murders, but there's no shifting focus among characters, no complex metaphors, nothing seriously unpleasant in the lives of Deborah and her family. Like sweet ice-tea, the narratives go down smoothly with none of the personal agony we find in Louise Penny's novels. And that's fine. I'll even admit that -- before reading Penny -- I thought that mysteries had to be complex and depressing or simple and unchallenging. And I would never have wanted Deborah's stories to be depressing.
There is, however, a point of diminishing returns for niceness in a long-running series, and for the last three or four novels I feared that the Deborah Knott books had reached/passed that point. But Maron seems to have written herself out of this dead end. By combining this series with her NYC novels, the author gave us the swift-moving action in Three-Day Town, followed immediately by moving the same cast down South for this book. This is certainly the most tightly-plotted of the Colleton County books, with an interesting dash of moral dilemma arising at the end. All of the main characters develop interesting wrinkles, while the visitors add some much-needed angst.

Another visit with old friends
By Galla
Reading Margaret Maron's books featuring Deborah Knott and family is like visiting with old and increasingly dear friends. The latest book, The Buzzard Table, is no exception. There are two plots which are tied together at the end: one the murder of a real estate agent and the second the mystery surrounding a previously unknown cousin who studies vultures. The solution of the murder is complicated by an attack on a high school student which may or may not be related to the murder, or to the activities of the cousin which apparently have something to do with the local airport that serves as a transit for rendition flights of prisoners from Guatanamo to other countries, countries with no quibbles about respecting human rights. The story moves quickly to a satisfactory end. While Deborah's family members make their obligatory appearances, they are far less ubiquitous in this novel and the family relationship shifts to that of visiting Sigrid Harald, her mother, and dying grandmother who has been a pillar of the community. The mysterious cousin is their close kin (although in the way of Southern communities, a distant cousin of Deborah's through her mother). In addition to interesting and fast moving plots, another strength of the Deborah Knotts's novels is the growing complexity of the individuals and their relationships with each other. Deborah's relationship with her stepson is strengthened in a lovely ending. And as a result of the explanation at the end about the mysterious cousin and his activities, we are given a hint about Dwight's days in Army Intelligence. Dwight is a far more complex person than his laid back persona reveals. As always, the North Carolina setting is brought vividly to life through descriptions of places, customs, and people.

Is anything ever as it appears upon first glance?
By Mary Gramlich
Judge Deborah Knott has comfortably adapted to her marriage to Dwight and mothering his son Cal. Deborah was raised around 11 brothers so there is not a lot a man can fool her about. Yet there is a man living obscurely under the pretense of photographing birds who has a story to tell of why he is there that does not quite make sense. He is connected to a well distanced cousin of Deborah's so he should not raise eye brows but when a young woman is killed too close to where he is staying red flags start flying every where.
Dwight is working this murder dealing with too many suspects all with a motive to want the woman removed from their life. Yet, as Dwight pulls the pieces together a teenager trying to stay out of trouble finds himself near death for making a poor decision. On top of that you add another murder that has the FBI cloak and dagger drama going on and Dwight is knee deep in what is happening in his town. The connection again is the strange man with quick lies and some very sketchy details about what he is really doing in Colleton County.
Margaret Maron provides readers with everything they look for in a book and more. There is the captivating mystery of course, but every story is woven around the personal aspect that makes Deborah and Dwight so enjoyable. This book in particular when have every fan of Ms Maron's grabbing a tissue by the end.
