Savage Season — Joe R. Lansdale

To the legion of readers made captive by master author Joe R. Lansdale--creator of Mucho Mojo and The Two Bear Mambo--the rose fields of LaBorde, Texas, evoke one thing only: home turf of Hap Collins, survivor who can't quite lose his white trash rebel streak, and Leonard Pine, black Vietnam vet and certified hardhead. SAVAGE SEASON is the novel that introduces the duo hailed as the most exciting team in contemporary dark suspense fiction. In it, Hap and Leonard plunge into a scam that can make their dreams come true--or drown them in a nightmare of greed and murder.

The catalyst--Trudy, Hap's onetime lover, careening through life with the pedal to the metal and no brakes. The prize--half a million in hot cash, waiting to be pulled from the icy Sabine River. The adversaries--killer weather. And human killers.
