Short stories, poems and essays in the manner of William Faulkner and Eudora Welty
The small-town South and tobacco land. Incest, suicide, love, old men, old ways, Blacks, white folks, the Nixon administration from inside, travelling behind the Iron Curtain. Life ashore and at sea. Making fine art. WWII homecoming. | |  | | Death Picks a Blue Palette
Rayanne, Noor and Sandy are the three right-brained detectives of the William D. Skees mystery series.
Rayanne is a portrait artist, a drawing teacher and an accidental detective, whose studio is in Old Town, Alexandria, Virginia, just across the Potomac River from Washington, D. C.
Rayanne and her sidekick, Noor, a born again, tough love lesbian, are confronted with a series of murders in the Old Town artists' community that the police want to write off as suicides. Rayanne's only weapons against the murderer are her intuitions, her very skeptical best friend, and Noor's lover, Sandy, a killer ex-Marine. |
