Advance Praise for "Season of the Snake""A suspenseful and heartbreaking meditation on the nature of fate, family, sex, death, and our individual misuses of love. Truly a thrilling novel."---Mark Spragg, author of "An Unfinished Life", "The Fruit of Stone", and "Where Rivers Change Direction""Claire Davis's new novel is a psychological thriller written with an almost Proustian sense of detail. It would not surprise me if Season of the Snake turns out to be this year's Mystic River, that rare book that manages to be both a huge literary and popular success."---"Steve Yarbrough", author of "Prisoners of War" and "The Oxygen Man""In Claire Davis's chilling new novel, predators wear the colors of their surroundings and only the undeceived survive.

Season of the Snake reconfirms her place in the first rank of voices from the American West."-David Long, author of "The Falling Boy""Like a coiled diamondback, Claire Davis's "Season of the Snake" grabs your attention and doesn't let go.
