Book Description
Two years after the serial killer, Nomad, terrorized the fictional city of Glamorgan, N.C., Glamorgan Police Department detectives Maxine Mudd and Jeffrey Pitts find themselves investigating the murder of Bonnie Blue, a '70s porno queen who had spent 30-plus years in prison for a murder committed in 1977. During their investigation, Mudd and Pitts find themselves revisiting the “old” murder files to assist them in solving the “new” murder case. In “Who Slew Bonnie Blue?,” author Elbert Marshall writes a “tale of two cities” — flashing back in Book One to 1977 to explore the underbelly of Glamorgan when drugs, sex and X-rated videotapes were the city's criminal foundation. A new character emerges in John Wesley Parrish, who is the Gazette's crime reporter. Parrish finds himself walking a tightrope with the “wrong crowd” — to include penning a movie script entitled “The Xanhedrin Rhapsody” for porno king, Jackson Brown Black, a.k.a. Blackjack; and writing the novel, “Fallen Angel: The True Story of Bonnie Blue,” after Miss Blue is convicted of murder and sentenced to prison.In Book Two, Marshall flashes forward to 2010. Bonnie Blue has served her prison sentence and returns to Glamorgan seeking redemption for her sinful acts. When she is found murdered at a local motel, the Gazette newsroom is abuzz. The new city editor, Evan Parris, assigns his crime writer, Norma Rae Smithers, to interview John Wesley Parrish, who still resides in Glamorgan County and is a successful sci-fi fantasy writer. Parrish commits to an interview — with one condition: Parrish wants Norma Rae to bring Evan and his mother, Penny, with her for the interview. Meanwhile, Detectives Mudd and Pitts stumble on a possible connection between older police department detectives and the 1977 murder case. They begin piecing the puzzle together — right up to a fatal shootout in a cemetery that will leave readers wondering, “What the Hell!” After nearly two years since publishing “Nomad,” Elbert Marshall continues the “Glamorgan Mystery Series” with another whodunit, “Who Slew Bonnie Blue?.” The series began with the publication of “Plotz” in 2011, which was co-authored with Sandy Bruney. Marshall is a former newspaper sportswriter, reporter and editor; therefore, he relies on his 29 years of experience in the newspaper trade to allow the reader a glimpse at the inner workings of the editorial side of the print business. In 1994, he left newspapering to become the executive director of the Anson County (N.C.) Chamber of Commerce, where he served until his retirement in December 2005. In 2001, he partnered with Chamber co-worker Sandy Bruney to form Marshall Bruney Media Consultants, a website development and multimedia consulting firm, until December 2009. He and his wife, Carla, reside in Concord, N.C.

Book Description
APRIL, 1861. As the Confederate cannon opens fire on Fort Sumter and the Civil War begins. A rebel officer on a courier run to the telegraph office, is murdered in a historic Charleston graveyard and his pouch of secret despatches stolen. How did he come to be there? Is it the work of a Union spy? Former Charleston Police Inspector and now Confederate Officer, Major Hugo Legare is assigned to the case. Meanwhile the civilian police arrest a young Jewish soldier, Simon Mendoza, and charge him with murder and espionage. The evidence against Mendoza is dangerously strong and anti-Semitic incitement fills the newspapers, feeding the fires of suspicion and bigotry. But Major Legare is not convinced. There are holes in the police case against Mendoza. Legare and his associate, scapegrace Irish nobleman Captain James Redmond, quickly turn up more than a few skeletons in the dead man's closet as well as a plethora of new suspects including a Boston abolitionist, the beautiful daughter of the city's most wealthy citizen, and one of their own brother officers. But while Legare hunts the killer through the gaslit streets of old Charleston, more bodies start piling up. Legare and Redmond must race against time to stop more murders and recover the vital documents which could change the course of the whole war.
