Corpse Had a Familiar Face

Now, back in print after many years, The Corpse Had a Familiar Face is her classic collection of true stories, as witnessed and reported by Buchanan herself. From cold-blooded murder, to violence in the heat of passion, to the everyday insanity of the city streets, Edna Buchanan reveals it all in her own trademark blend of compassionate reporting, hard-nosed investigation, and wry humor that has made her a legend in the world of journalism.Buchanan, Edna is the author of 'Corpse Had a Familiar Face', published 1991 under ISBN 9780425129944 and ISBN 0425129942.
