Perihal e-buku ini
With echoes of Fargo and the writing of Cormac McCarthy, this is another “wonderfully wry . . . standout” novel of suspense from the critically acclaimed author of Go With Me (People)
When a young ne’er do well steals from the local Russians, Sheriff Lucian Wing confronts a series of trials that test his work, his message, and the order of his life in small-town Vermont
Sheriff Lucian Wing is an experienced, practical man who enforces the law in his corner of Vermont with a steady hand and a generous tolerance. Things are not as they should be, however, in the sheriff’s small, protected domain. The outside world draws near, and threats multiply: the arrival in the district of a band of exotic, major league criminals; an ambitious and aggressive deputy; the self-destructive exploits of a local bad boy; Wing’s discovery of a domestic crisis. The sheriff’s response to these diverse challenges calls on all the personal resources he has cultivated during his working life: patience, tact, and (especially) humor.
