Summary

En western, der skildrer udviklingen i USA fra omkring år 1900 frem til begyndelsen af 1920’erne. Samtidig er det en nærmest mytisk fremstilling af forholdet mellem far og søn. Den farverige roman bevæger sig fra Mexico til San Antonio's bordeller og saloner og er en fortælling om kærlighed og tab, forræderi, hævn og gengældelse. Vi følger politimanden Hackberry Holland på hans rejse gennem et mere og mere moderne, korrumperet USA, hvor racisme og klassekamp, monopolisme og en "ond" våbenindustri gennemsyrer samfundet, og i hans bestræbelser på at blive genforenet med sin fremmede søn, Ishmael. James Lee Burke, født i Texas, har skrevet en lang række kriminalromaner, der alle foregår i de amerikanske sydstater. Han har to gange modtager en Edgar for årets bedste kriminalroman, og i 2009 udnævnte Mystery Writers of America ham til stormester. Hans debutroman ‘Sangen om det blå græs’ blev nomineret til en Pulitzer Prize. Han bor i dag på en ranch i Montana med sin kone Pearl.
