Description

Gone South by Robert McCammon is set against the backdrop of hell's season, a time when the air reeks of burning children. This gothic picaresque masterfully weaves together gritty plot and dark comedy to create a smoothly constructed story. Dan Lambert's life is forever changed after he kills a man in a moment of fear and fury, an act that sets him on a desperate journey through a desperate land. Pursued by police and bounty hunters, Dan flees south towards the Louisiana bayous, where he meets Arden Halliday, a young woman haunted by her own past. Together, they embark on a perilous quest for a legendary faith healer known as the Bright Girl. As they navigate treacherous waterways into the depths of the human heart, Dan and Arden must confront their own demons and search for simple kindness in a world that rarely shows it.
