"It was hell's season, and the air smelled of burning children...."
With "one of the most arresting first sentences in contemporary
writing" "(The Atlanta Journal-Constitution), " Robert McCammon
unfurls his visionary masterpiece of survival, redemption, and the
astonishing transformations love can create.
GONE SOUTH
chronicles a desperate man's journey through a desperate land,
in "a gothic picaresque that mixes gritty plot and black comedy...a
smoothly constructed and satisfying story" "(The Wall Street
Journal )."
Flooded by memories, poisoned by Agent Orange, Dan Lambert kills
a man in a moment of fear and fury -- and changes his life forever.
Pursued by police and bounty hunters, Dan flees south toward the
Louisiana bayous. In the swamplands he meets Arden Halliday, a
young woman who bears the vivid burdens of her own past, and who is
searching for a legendary faith healer called the Bright Girl.
Looking for simple kindness in a world that rarely shows it, bound
by a loyalty stronger than love, Dan and Arden set off on a journey
of relentless suspense and impassioned discovery...over dark,
twisting waterways into the mysterious depths of the human
heart.
