"The setting is familiar, the wild woods and bayous of East Texas. But the period is the Great Depression. The focus is on a young boy struggling to make sense of a string of baffling, garish murders as well as the world he thought he knew. An atmospheric, doom-laden variation on Texas Gothic as only Joe R. Lansdale can create it, this novel departs from the author's outrageous, wild-and-woolly style of 'Freezer Burn' and his earlier novels.
