Deb Miller Landau's new book, 'A Devil Went Down to Georgia,' delves into the 1987 murder of Atlanta socialite Lita McClinton Sullivan, who was shot at her Buckhead townhouse just hours before a crucial court hearing for her divorce from James Vincent Sullivan. James, a wealthy businessman, was later found to have hired Phillip Anthony “Tony” Harwood to kill Lita for $25,000. The murder, which shocked the Atlanta community, is detailed in Landau's 244-page book that explores themes of race, power, and privilege. The case took nearly two decades to resolve, with Sullivan eventually being brought to justice due to the persistent efforts of Lita's parents. The book provides a comprehensive forensic treatment of one of the country's most controversial and now long-forgotten murder cases.
