8th in the series and not really necessary to have read any others. Maron takes us on another road trip to a different area of North Carolina, where we learn a bit about their famous potteries, and a bit more about making pots and glazes. Nice mystery plot with the villain not immediately obvious and no major twists. Judge Knott has plausible reasons for being nosy and she isn't just a bystander in the solution. Maron was pretty hard on the Nordan family but they did kinda deserve it. The opening bits that spell the end of the Kidd relationship are laugh-out-loud funny, as is the other judge later in the book, but the Nordan family...I found that whole thing pretty dark. I liked it.
