Lucile Garrett is just thirteen when she meets Clint Palmer, a
charismatic stranger who will forever change her life. The year is
1934, and as the windblown dust of the Great Depression rakes the
Oklahoma plains, Palmer offers Lucile and her father, homeless and
hungry, the irresistible promise of a better future. But when they
follow Palmer to Texas, Lucile's father mysteriously disappears,
launching man and girl on an epic journey through the American
Southwest: a spree of violence and murder that culminates in one of
the most celebrated criminal trials of the era. Based on a true
story, Hard Twisted is a chilling tale of survival and redemption,
and a young girl's coming of age in a world as cruel as it is
beautiful.
