Hell at the Breech
Page 37
—BookPage
“A grand achievement, a parable, told in the past tense for our present time.”
—Dallas Morning News
“An elegant dissection of a catastrophe…as much as Hell at the Breech may sound like a western, it’s not…. Everyone in it is morally compromised, as the novel’s final twist reveals. That makes it feel like a noir, a rural noir, if there can be such a thing. But whatever you call it, it’s pretty damn hard to put down.”
—Salon
