In her meticulously researched true-crime work, A Devil Went Down to Georgia: Race, Power, Privilege, and the Murder of Lita McClinton (2024), Deb Miller Landau reconstructs the notorious 1987 murder of Atlanta socialite Lita McClinton, who was gunned down at her Buckhead doorstep just as her interracial divorce was about to be finalized. "Deb Miller Landau's heartbreaking true crime tale of murder and greed is a meticulously researched portrayal of an accomplished young Black woman's extraordinary life and cruel death. Obscured behind the lies and manipulations of her charming, obsessive, white millionaire husband, the breathtaking narrative unravels the facts behind the investigations and multiple trials to finally reveal the shocking truth" (Deborah Holt Larkin, author of 'A Lovely Girl: The Tragedy of Olga Duncan and the Trial of One of California's Most Notorious Killers').
