Description
Lee Goodwin is accused of murder. The crime scene is a secluded house among trees that harbours an illicit distillery. It's here that Ruby lives, having given up everything for Lee, and Popeye, a sadistic gangster scarred by a terrible childhood. Lawyer Horace Benbow fights to prove Goodwin's innocence, rather than his guilt, but needs the help of Temple Drake, a teenager drawn to danger. But Temple has disappeared. As the story unfolds, it becomes clear that Faulkner's masterful storytelling is at its most chilling here. This gripping tale showcases the author's unique style and skill. Published in 2010, Santuario was one of Faulkner's first works to reach a wide audience.
