THREE-DAY TOWN

During their belated honeymoon in New York City, Judge Deborah Knott and her husband have a small task to perform—delivering a package to a distant cousin. The package turns out to contain a rare erotic sculpture with a twisted history, and the distant cousin turns out to be Sigrid Harrold, last seen in Maron’s 1995 novel, FUGITIVE COLORS. The result is a tightly scripted story of theft and murder, told in two voices and narrated with verve by C.J. Critt. While her voice lacks a Carolina cadence when reading the chapters from Judge Knott’s perspective, Critt has the timing, tone, and attitudes of the characters down pat.
