For fans of THE RANGER series by Ace Atkins, this novel sees the return of Quinn Colson as the law keeper of his home town. Set in the south of the United States Colson & his few allies battle the twin forces of political corruption & outright crime. And as usual he never quite wins, so the saga of a county devastated by greed & evil continues. Colson also has to contend with struggles within his own family from a recovering alcoholic sister to his "living on the edge of legality" father. All sounds depressing, but these novels are filled with a wry humor. His sidekick mentions the noise from the Monstor Truck Jam stating that Southerners have no taste. Colson replies that he took his nephew to see it. The com back is "proves my point'". Highly addictive & tightly plotted, get into this series now!
