Master of the delta
by Thomas Cook and Thomas H. Cook
They call Eddie Miller "The Co-ed Killer's Son". When Eddie was five years old, his father killed a local college girl, dismembered her body, and buried it in the woods. Where Eddie's family name has brought only infamy, Jack's has bestowed deference and respect. He's returned from college to teach in his hometown. At the back of his class, sits Eddie. Jack sees a youong man of promise, struggling with a poisonous inheritance, and encourages Eddie to discover the truth about his father. Others would rather the past was left undisturbed. Jack's father was a teacher himself - he taught Eddie's father - and he knows that not all questions should be answered.

Work Description
Jack Branch, the last son of an aristocratic Old South family, has returned to his hometown, taking on the job of teacher at the local high school. When he sets his students a paper entitled 'The Most Evil Person', he expects essays on historical tyrants and literary villains. He doesn't expect Eddie Miller's choice - his own father. Throughout his life, Eddie has been known as 'The Coed Killer's Son', because when Eddie was eight years old, his father killed a local college student, dismembered her body, and buried the pieces in a local forest. Eddie's investigation of his own father's dark secrets steadily widens until, ultimately, it encompasses the whole town.
