AMERICAN BY DAY - DEREK B MILLER KARTONIERT (TB)

'This book reminds me of the things that crime fiction can do when it works well ... Miller
isn't afraid to write characters who are opinionated. They don't hold their tongue about what
they believe in  they let rip. People are angry  people are passionate. I love the unorthodoxy
of it  I suppose. It's not what you expect it to be. Val McDermidShe knew it was a weird place.
She'd heard the stories  seen the movies  read the books. But now police Chief Inspector Sigrid
Ødegård has to leave her native Norway and actually go there  to that land across the Atlantic
where her missing brother is implicated in the mysterious death of a prominent African-American
academic.America. And not someplace interesting  either: upstate New York.Plunged into a United
States where race and identity  politics and promise  reverberate in every aspect of daily
life. To find her older brother  she needs the help of the local police who appear to have
already made up their minds about the case. Working with - or  if necessary  against - someone
actually named Sheriff Irving 'Irv' Wylie  she must negotiate the local political minefields
and navigate the back woods of the Adirondacks to uncover the truth before it's too
late...Shortlisted for the CWA Gold Dagger Award 2019
