Description
Rain Gods by James Lee Burke In this gripping novel, James Lee Burke introduces us to Hackberry Holland, a sheriff with a haunted past. A former POW from the Korean War, Hack has left his traumatic experiences behind to start anew in a small border town in south Texas. However, when nine dead prostitutes are discovered behind a run-down church, Hack's peaceful life is shattered. As he delves into the mystery, Hack must confront hired guns, drug dealers, and a psychotic killer known as The Preacher. With his own demons to contend with, Hack's search for justice becomes an all-consuming quest for revenge. Burke's masterful storytelling weaves together a complex web of crime and corruption, keeping readers on the edge of their seats. Fans of gritty, hard-boiled fiction will be drawn into this dark and suspenseful world, where the lines between good and evil are constantly blurred.
