Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A killer on parole. A little girl next door. One year of grace. Ronnie Wells is sixty-eight years old and has been out of prison for a year. He keeps his trailer clean, works at a hardware store, and sits on his porch swing thinking about a daughter he has never met. He has not had a drink or thrown a punch since 1979, the night he killed a man with his hands. Next door lives Mary. She is seven. Her mother, Clara, is young and beautiful and turns tricks for a pimp named Joe, and Mary has spent more nights sleeping in the back seat of a car than in a bed. When Ronnie fixes up a bicycle and teaches her to ride it, he is only trying to be kind. When he teaches her to play the guitar, he is already lost. For one autumn in a trailer park called the Palms, three broken people make something like a family. Clara gets clean. Mary stops being afraid. Ronnie learns to pray. Then Clara relapses, Joe comes to collect, and Mary is sold to men who have no intention of giving her back. Ronnie knows what he is. He has spent thirty-six years trying not to be it. Now the only question is whether he can be it one more time, and for how long, and whether there will be anything left of him when he is done. This is a book about the year a bad man got to be good, and what it cost him to give it back. Nominated for Georgia Author of the Year. Winner of the 2023 Readers' Favorite Award for Southern Fiction and the 2023 BookFest Award for Domestic Thriller. This revised second edition is the definitive text. …

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Everyone in Marble Hill has a theory about what happened to Sam Renfro. Her twin sister came home to find out which of them is lying. Anna Renfro got out of Marble Hill, Georgia-Meth Hill, if you were being honest-and went to college in Athens. Her twin sister Sam stayed. Then Sam walks out of the Yellow Creek Bar with a stranger in a black cowboy hat and doesn't come back. Anna drops everything and drives north into the hollows. Her mother is drunk on the couch. Her uncle Brokeback, who cooks meth in a storm shelter and answers to no one, is looking for Sam his own way. The sheriff has a theory involving cartels. The pastor's wife has a casserole, and questions she stops herself from asking. When Sam's dress turns up on a trail in the Wildlife Management Area, Anna learns that the sister she thought she knew had a whole life she never asked about. And that in this county, the law is one thing and justice is something older. This is a book about the people we leave behind, and what they owe each other when the law can't settle the bill.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Not every empty house is truly empty.Mara Holt sells the houses nobody wants: bank-owned, stripped for copper, beige as the Inland Empire sky. Two years ago she was selling glass houses in the Bird Streets to tech money, with twenty-four thousand people watching her do it. Now she wears the Target jeans and the old Nikes, keeps a notebook of rules she calls the Framework, and holds a small, careful life together one showing at a time.Then she opens the door at 2847 Fox Ridge Court. A man sits zip-tied to a kitchen chair, days dead, tortured for something he never gave up. Behind the cut drywall, Mara finds it: twelve words on a piece of paper. A seed phrase. Nearly fifteen million dollars that belongs, now, to whoever holds the words.Mara runs.Behind her comes Sheriff Linda Crews, twenty-five years married, three years into a job that has made her witness to everything the valley does to people, with a marriage coming apart and a deputy in intensive care. And behind them both comes Derek Caine, the man you send when money needs collecting: patient, exact, a killer who trusts nothing but arithmetic and has never been wrong about what a person will do. He has a file on Mara. He knows what she wants. He is counting on it.What Doesn't Live Here is a literary crime novel from the edge of the Mojave, told in the voices of the woman running, the woman chasing, and the man who intends to be the last one standing. It is a book about foreclosed subdivisions named for animals that never lived there, about money that belongs to whoever is left, about hunger that answers hunger, and about how far a woman will run before she turns around and looks at what she is carrying.For readers of Cormac McCarthy's No Country for Old Men, S. A. Cosby, and Don Winslow. …

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Carme Zamora wakes in a glass house above Mulholland Drive wearing a slip that isn't hers, in a bed she doesn't remember, with the whole basin of Los Angeles burning quietly below. On the nightstand: a script bound in brass brads, her name penciled on the cover in handwriting that is almost her own. In the driveway: a green 1968 Mustang fastback whose dashboard clock is stopped at 3:00.Every night the road calls her down. And every night there is a woman waiting: a starlet from 1949 with broken teeth, a singer from the canyon years, a girl the city swallowed and never named. Seven women the road has taken since it was first paved, stitched into something that drives between 3:00 and 3:17 a.m., the seventeen minutes no one is allowed to remember.Carme has seven nights to learn what the road wants from her, and what it has already begun to make of her.The City Lights Below is a hypnotic literary horror novel about the city that runs on the women it consumes, and the road that keeps its own counsel. Told across seven nights in a house that was built to be looked out of and never into, it moves between the Hollywood that sells itself and the one underneath, where a screen test from 1949 and a canyon-party recording from 1967 are still playing to a room that will not empty. It is a ghost story in the old sense, a story about being claimed, and about the small, exact price of being remembered by a place that remakes everyone it keeps.For readers of Shirley Jackson, Paul Tremblay, and Silvia Moreno-Garcia's Mexican Gothic, and for anyone who has driven Mulholland after midnight and felt the city looking back.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - A rideshare driver's dashcam in Atlanta. Body camera footage from a social worker's final visit to an Appalachian hollow. Eleven Hi8 tapes recovered from a summer camp that closed in the summer of 1997 and never explained why. A smart home AI still recording in an empty house in Beverly Hills. A fishing livestream over a drowned church, watched live by eighteen thousand people before the host disappeared. A state trooper's supplemental report on a funeral procession that crossed the wrong bridge.These are twenty found documents: incident files, archive logs, evidence reports, broadcast records, each one assembled from footage that exists, submitted to an authority that cannot act on it, assigned a case number that will never be closed. A feed store's public-access broadcast. A baby monitor. A deer camera. A pawn shop's security ring. A motel on the Blue Mist Highway. The cameras were running. They recorded everything.That is the problem.Status: Open is found-footage horror on the page. Every story is built from the paperwork that outlives its people: the timestamps, the transcripts, the chain-of-custody forms, the officer's note that the file is being kept open pending further information that will never come. There are no narrators here, only records, and the records are not on your side. From the Georgia mountains to the Nevada desert, the collection walks the back roads of the American South and West, where the old things have learned to wait for a lens.Read it the way it was filed: one case at a time, with the lights on.…
