Wade Holt drove the last fifty miles into Caldwell on bad tires and a fan belt he'd been meaning to change since Tulsa. He'd been gone twelve years. His mother was in a Methodist cemetery off the county road. His father wasn't.
The thing his father had been blamed for was a thing his father hadn't done. Wade had a duffel and a file box in the bed of the truck, and a name at the top of a list he'd been carrying for a year. The country had been waiting for him longer than he'd been gone — and the man at the top of the list had been running parts of it badly for most of that time.coming back is the easy part. Staying is the part Wade has to learn.
A Quiet Man is a Southern Noir in the tradition of S.A. Cosby, Tom Franklin, and Brian Panowich — about a return, a reckoning, a country that doesn't forget, and what it means for a man to finally stop.
