East of Texas, West of Hell

Autor Rod Davis
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 sep 2020
Jack Prine returns in this crime powerhouse--a maelstrom of meth-dealing, human trafficking, and white supremacy. -- Publishers Weekly The latest from prose stylist and accomplished novelist Rod Davis exposes the dark underbelly and underground economies of God's country. A desperate call from heiress Elle Meridian shakes ex-Dallas TV anchor Jack Prine from his comfortable life in the Big Easy as he begins his long search for Meridian's missing teenage daughter. Instead of the girl, Jack discovers the savaged bodies of drug dealers and embarks on a journey of relentless violence and lethal betrayal across the South. As an intricate web of deception, extortion, and murder unwinds, Prine finds himself at odds with neo-Nazis, the cartel, and the Dixie Mafia. Even if Prine can save Meridian's child, can he justify the blood on his hands? Rod Davis expands the thrilling world of South, America in this Southern noir, rife with chaos, unexpected turns, and fascinating characters.

A six-part series on the Texas-Mexico border, "A Rio Runs Through It," appears in Best American Travel Writing 2002.
