Anne George



Anne George



The Southern Sisters Chapter of Sisters in Crime, based in Birmingham, Alabama, is named for the Southern Sisters mysteries. This eight novel series (published from 1996-2001) featured two unlikely sisters, Mary Alice (large and several times widowed) and Patricia Anne (small and  respectably married to the same man for more than thirty years), who solved crimes. The author, Anne George, wrote fiction and poetry, received the Agatha award, and was nominated for the Pulitzer Prize. She died in 2001 due to complications from heart surgery, but her memory and work are celebrated each year at Murder in the Magic City.
