Acclaimed author Joe Lansdale's landmark tale of love and vengeance
at the dark dawn of the East Texas oil boom. Jack Parker knows all
too well how treacherous life can be. His parents did not survive a
smallpox epidemic. His grandfather was murdered. Now his sister
Lula has been kidnapped by a bank robber. Alongside bounty hunter
Shorty, an eloquent dwarf with a chip on his shoulder, and Eustace,
the grave-digging son of an ex-slave, Jack sets off to rescue Lula.
In turn-of-the-century Texas, that quest is likely to turn
dangerous. Murderous outlaws find their homes in the remote
wilderness. Oil wells spurt liquid money from the ground. And blood
and redemption still rule supreme.
