The Innocents: Quinn Colson Novel, cartea 6
Autor Ace Atkinsen Limba Engleză Paperback
Now, back in Jericho, trying to fix things with his still-married high school girlfriend and retired Hollywood stuntman father, he's drawn to becoming a lawman again. This time, he accepts a badge from acting Sheriff Lillie Virgil, a foul-mouthed law woman with shades of Calamity Jane. But what they must confront together is something brand-new.
When a former high school cheerleader is found walking a back road completely engulfed in flames, the entire state focuses on the rural county, wanting answers. The light soon shines on several people: the girl's father, a worthless drunk named Wash Jones; a pair of teenage thugs with grand ambitions to control north Mississippi; and a red-headed truck stop madam named Fannie Hathcock, who has her own problems - the Syndicate from down on the Gulf Coast has big plans for her neck of the woods.
As Quinn and Lillie uncover old secrets and new lies, the entire town turns against them, and they learn the most dangerous enemies may be the ones you trust most.
Ace Atkins "sets a new standard for Southern crime fiction," writes The New York Times Book Review- and, with The Innocents, he sets it again. From the Hardcover edition.

Descriere
Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
She was just 17, a high school dropout named Milly Jones, found walking down the middle of the highway, engulfed in flames. Even in a tough Mississippi county like Tibbehah, it shatters the community, and it is up to Sheriff Quinn Colson, back on the job after a year away, and his deputy Lillie Virgil, to investigate what happened, and why. Before long, however, accusations start to fly; national media and federal authorities descend; and what seemed like a senseless act of violence begins to appear like something even more disturbing - with more victims waiting in the shadows.

Recenzii
Although this is a novel fueled by testosterone and moonshine, three of its best characters are women . . . 18-year-old Milly Jones grabs your heart
I will throw down against anyone who disagrees with the statement that Atkins is one of our best American writers. Period.
Atkins finds his natural-born storytellers everywhere. It's all music to these ears
Quinn Colson is my kind of guy. I would follow him anywhere
With terrific, inflected characters and a dark, subtle sense of place and history, these are exceptional novels.
Ace Atkins's Quinn Colson series is, quite simply, the best in crime fiction today - and also so much more. With a rich cast of characters, and a hero we can count on, these are tales of morality and desperation, of shocking violence and the enduring resilience of family and community. And the emotional places they take us make them unforgettable
In Quinn Colson, bestselling author Ace Atkins has created an American hero in a time when we need him
The rough-and-tumble relationship between two tough-as-nails law officers and the place they love provides plenty of action [and] well-developed characters.
