When Wes Carver returns to Black River, he carries two things in
the cab of his truck: his wife's ashes and a letter from the prison
parole board. The convict who held him hostage during a riot,
twenty years ago, is being considered for release. Wes grew up in
this small Montana town, encircled by mountains and like his father
before him and most of the men there, he made his living as a
Corrections Officer. A talented, natural fiddler, he found solace
and joy in his music. But during that riot Bobby Williams changed
everything for Wes, undermining his faith and taking away his
ability to play. How can a man who once embodied evil ever come to
good? How can he pay for such crimes with anything but his life? As
Wes considers his own choices and grieves for all he's lost, he
must decide what he believes and whether he can let Williams walk
away. With spare prose and stunning detail, S. M. Hulse drops us
deep into the heart and darkness of an American town.
