It's a hot summer night in a small town in North Carolina. A pretty girl named Anna Shockley has arrived in the emergency room after a drug overdose. And so, David Livingston, emergency room orderly, fledgling artist, and incorrigible romantic, meets the obsession of a lifetime. When he moves into the communal house where Anna lives, David soon discovers that Anna Shockley is dangerous to herself and others—and that there are those around her, drawn by the "doomed shout" of her beauty, who are far more dangerous. Winner of a New American Writing Awards, Maybe I'll Call Anna is a novel of obsession and suspense in which madness, betrayal, and the machinations of a cunning, powerful murderer keep the reader turning pages as a compelling story of love and revenge unfolds.
