"A sprawling exploration of New York nostalgia, police brutality, addiction memoir, and queer love, with a mystery as the cherry on top." --Kirkus Reviews
"A classic Schulman tale that's as much murder mystery as it is a grimly funny comment on our semi-dystopian moment." --Lambda Legal
"Sarah Schulman's startling brilliance and wry humor is everything." --Jacqueline Woodson, author of Another Brooklyn"Maggie Terry is the most beautiful, most bitter, most sweet, and all around best detective novel I've read in years. This book has depth and vision to spare. Precise, insightful, heartbreaking, and page turning--read this book, now." --Sara Gran, author of Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead
"Clear-eyed and beautifully written, Maggie Terry is classic Schulman. She flenses and dissects the human condition, weighs every organ--how we connect, what forms the beating heart of a community--then magically breathes life back into the husk and helps it rise, reborn." --Nicola Griffith, author of So Lucky
"Inventive, boundary pushing, and absolutely electric, Maggie Terry centers women and queerness in the most exciting way, within a story you'll never want to stop reading." --Jill Soloway, creator of Transparent

"Ex-cop Maggie Terry draws us inside the greatest mystery of all--herself--in a reverberating story of our times. Sarah Schulman is at the top of her very considerable powers in this deeply humane novel. It is profoundly, just stunningly good." --Katherine V. Forrest, author of High Desert
"Sarah Schulman's Maggie Terry is a page-turning murder mystery, yes. Yet what makes it so compelling and unique is the story of Maggie herself--a lovesick recovering addict, grieving for her former life and for a New York City that's now unfamiliar to her. In this context, Maggie's search for the killer, plus her own redemption, becomes something altogether more than a whodunit. Ultimately, Maggie Terry is a psychological portrait of a woman trying to make her way back from the edge, and an inspiring one at that." --Danny Caine, The Raven Book Store
"Maggie Terry is the most beautiful, most bitter, most sweet, and all around best detective novel I've read in years. Precise, insightful, heartbreaking, and page turning." —Sara Gran, author of The Infinite Blacktop
Post-rehab, Maggie Terry is single-mindedly trying to keep her head down in New York City. There's a madman in the White House, the subways are constantly delayed, summer is relentless, and neighborhoods all seem to blend together.
Against this absurd backdrop, Maggie wants nothing more than to slowly re- build her life in hopes of being reunited with her daughter. But her first day on the job as a private investigator lands her in the middle of a sensational new case: actress strangled. If Maggie is going to solve this mystery, she'll have to shake the ghosts—dead NYPD partner, vindictive ex, steadfast drug habit—that have long ruled her life.
