The Last King: A Maceo Redfield Novel

Nichelle Tramble¿s first novel, The Dying Ground (F0102), was named a Best Book of 2001 by the Chicago Tribune and the San Francisco Chronicle. In this follow-up work, Maceo returns home after drifting for two years. He finds his friends tangled up in a murder case and he must act fast to save them.
¿Tramble proves herself an unpretentious poet whose sense of the inner city, its argot and its inhabitants, is almost romantic¿and certainly vivid.¿¿Philadelphia Weekly
