Why read it?

1 author picked Delafield as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

There’s a freeway sign on the way to Palm Springs that directs you to “Other Desert Cities.” I love that sign because it so captures the desert, and so does Katherine V.

From Veronica's list on badass female detectives on location.
