A spare disciplined prose that no one will be able to read without thinking of Hemingway. But MacEnulty has made the style her own. - Observer MacEnulty writes with sympathy, wisdom and-an unexpected blessing-humour. - Guardian The dirty realistic landscape sometimes steps aside for bittersweet coming-of-age flashbacks, but mostly we're in swampy hell. Harry Crews would love it. - Uncut Time to Say Goodbye tells the story of a suburban wife and mother with a deadly past and the detective who is determined to find out the truth. When a motel maid in Gainesville, Florida, is brutally murdered, Detective Bullock believes the crime may be linked to three 25-year-old murders. Later, when another woman disappears, Bullock discovers a connection that his superiors don't want him to pursue. Working on his own time, Bullock follows a lead to a realtor in North Carolina. Another kidnapping takes him back to Florida and into the eye of a hurricane, where he must battle the elements to save lives. Pat MacEnulty's first mystery, Time to Say Goodbye is a triumphant invasion of the traditionally male world of noir writing. Pat MacEnulty lives in Charlotte, North Carolina. She is the recipient of an Individual Artist Fellowship from the Florida Arts Council.
