Aprašymas

From the author of the acclaimed novel, House of Cotton, comes an electric, haunting new
Southern noir following the residents of Better Tomorrow Trailer Park in the aftermath of
a gruesome murder.

Summer '97. Deadly sins. Misguided obsessions.

When Better Tomorrow Trailer Park's owner, Joe Candle, is found nailed to a cross in the center
of the lot, the police have one question for the park's eccentric residents: Who killed Candle?

No one is safe from suspicion. Not the pretty, calf-eyed cashier with a shadowed past, or the
barber and his strange, altered demeanor, or the young son of a cop who harbors a volcanic
temper.

As the investigation begins and satanic panic grips this small town in the heart of Appalachia, the
low-grade paranoia spreads beyond the borders of the park and the arrival of a lone, mysterious
detective throws the residents in for a loop. The questions that arise threaten the very existence
of Better Tomorrow, and the community is tested to its breaking point.

Set over the course of three scorching-hot days during the summer solstice, Lonesome Holler is a
beautifully written exploration of loneliness, a blue-tuned elegy for community, and a comedic,
devastating ode to the South.
