These unforgettable heroes were called "two of the most memorable detectives ever to appear in mystery fiction" by "The New York Times Book Review". Justin narrates "Uncivil Seasons", a story about class barriers and the weight of the Southern past with plot twists of love, tragedy, death and humour that are characteristically Malone. The polite Piedmont town of Hillston, South Carolina, wants to go on believing it is still too temperate to require homicide experts. But when the wife of a state senator is found beaten to death, the inner circle of Hillston's ruling families arranges to have the case assigned to Detective Justin Savile, the charming black sheep of the dynasty that founded the town. Aided by his wise-cracking, working-class partner, Cuddy Magnum, and a young woman from the Carolina mountains whose strength and loves rescues him from his own destructive impulses, Savile sets out to unravel the deceit hidden in Hillston's past.His obsessive pursuit of one of this own and his determination to save a petty thief from being railroaded for murder not only lead to other deaths, but bring the detective very near to losing his own life. With striking humour and a rich range of characters, Malone creates a landscape struggling the New South's high-tech lifestyles and the Old South's inherited codes.
