The Lonesome Trials of Johnny Riles (Strattford County Novel, Band 2) - Softcover
Buch 2 von 3: Strattford County
Inhaltsangabe
It's 1975. Johnny Riles leads a lonesome, whiskey-soaked existence on Colorado's high prairie. Abandoned by his parents, who moved away after Johnny accidentally shot his father, and absent his buffoonish younger brother, who has left home to star in the American Basketball Association, Johnny is an uncommonly unhappy man. Johnny is awoken from a depressive stupor after an autumn snowstorm leads him to cross paths with a brutal killer. Thus do his trials begin. The hunt for the killer splinters Johnny's psyche into dangerous and bizarre shards, driving him to beneath the stark western landscape--both literally and figuratively--to unearth the truths behind his nightmares, to search for vengeance, to bargain for his brother's soul, and to plead for a sober reason to live.

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor
Gregory Hill grew up on the eastern edge of the American west, on a wheat farm near a tiny Colorado town called Joes. His relationship with that anarchic, windswept region in the heart of America continues to this day; and his novels are saturated in the area's wildlife, language, and gleeful insanity. Relying extensively on desperate characters in barren landscapes, his work is a relentlessly adventurous, unapologeticaly literate antidote to the myth of the wholesome, God-fearing heartland.
