Quiet Killing is a new mystery novel set in Western North Carolina. It is the second in the Promise McNeal mystery series and takes the main character, made popular in Quiet the Dead, on a hunt for a murderer roaming territory many area residents may find familiar. North Carolina folk hero and notorious moonshine outlaw, Lewis Redmond, also figures in the tale of a mysterious lost little girl, arson and a restless spirit haunting the mountains.
