From the creator of the hit HBO series True Detective comes a
powerful, gleaming-dark thriller rich with Southern atmosphere. Roy
Cady is by his own admission 'a bad man'. With a snow flurry of
cancer in his lungs and no one to live for, he's a walking
time-bomb of violence. Following a fling with his boss's lover,
he's sent on a routine assignment he knows is a death trap. Yet
after a smoking spasm of violence, Roy's would-be killers are
mostly dead and he is mostly alive. Before Roy makes his getaway,
he finds a beaten-up woman in the apartment, and sees something in
her frightened, defiant eyes that causes a crucial decision. He
takes her with him on the run from New Orleans to Galveston, Texas,
permanently entwining their fate along a highway of seedy bars and
fleabag hotels, a world of treacherous drifters, pick-up trucks,
and ashed-out hopes, with death just a car-length behind. Nic
Pizzolatto's highly acclaimed, Edgar Award-nominated thriller
announces the arrival of a major new talent for fans of Dennis
Lehane, James Lee Burke and Breaking Bad.
