An associate professor in the Department of English, Rhetoric, and Humanistic Studies at the Virginia Military Institute, longtime writer/essayist Polly Stewart is also the author of two novels, Wild Girls (written as Mary Stewart Atwell) and now The Good Ones. Alex Segura calls the new book “a riveting debut crime novel that’s loaded with elements that readers will love — powerful characters, a fraught homecoming, and twists galore.” Stewart discussed The Good Ones with Stephen Usery in July.
