About this product

Product Information

A brilliantly layered novel of crime, character, and place from the two-time Edgar Award winner, Gold Dagger Award winner, and New York Times bestselling author of Sunset Limited. Few writers in America today combine James Lee Burke's lush prose, crackling story lines, and tremendous sense of history and landscape. In Cimmaron Rose, longtime fans of the Dave Robicheaux series found that the struggles of Texas defense attorney Billy Bob Holland show Burke at his best in exploring classic American themes--the sometimes subtle, often violent strains between the haves and the have-nots; the collision of past and present; the inequities in the criminal justice system. Heartwood is a kind of tree that grows in layers. And as Billy Bob's grandfather once told him, you do well in life by keeping the roots in a clear stream and not letting anyone taint the water for you. But in Holland's dusty little hometown of Deaf Smith, in the hill country north of Austin, local kingpin Earl Deitrich has made a fortune running roughshod and tainting anyone who stands in his way. Billy Bob has problems with Deitrich and his shamelessly callous demeanor, but can't shake the legacy of his passion for Deitrich's heartbreak-beautiful wife, Peggy Jean. When Holland takes on the defense of Wilbur Pickett--a man accused of stealing an heirloom and three hundred thousand dollars in bonds from Deitrich's office--he finds himself up against not only Earl's power and influence, but also a past Billy Bob can't will away. A wonderfully realized novel, rich in Texas atmosphere and lore, and a dazzling portrait of the deadly consequences of self-delusion, Heartwood could only have been written by James Lee Burke, a writer in expert command of his craft.

Critical acclaim for James Lee Burke and the Billy Bob Holland Series: "Burke is a master at setting mood, laying in atmosphere, all with quirky, raunchy dialogue that's a delight." --Elmore Leonard "Billy Bob Holland is as angst-ridden and morally shell-shocked as Dave Robicheaux ever was, but like Robicheaux, Holland's moral compass always points to true north...Don't miss out." --Rocky Mountain News "Burke [is] one of the best writers of our time.  His plots build tension to such a pitch that it tempts one to rush through his books.  But his writing demands that his works be savored." --Denver Post "Burke is known for the lush bayou cadences that give solid flesh to his longtime series hero, deputy sheriff Dave Robicheaux, and this prose style moves easily to the steamy precincts of southeast Texas." --Chicago Sun-Times From the Hardcover edition., Critical acclaim for James Lee Burke and the Billy Bob Holland Series: "Burke is a master at setting mood, laying in atmosphere, all with quirky, raunchy dialogue that's a delight." --Elmore Leonard "Billy Bob Holland is as angst-ridden and morally shell-shocked as Dave Robicheaux ever was, but like Robicheaux, Holland's moral compass always points to true north...Don't miss out." -- Rocky Mountain News "Burke [is] one of the best writers of our time.  His plots build tension to such a pitch that it tempts one to rush through his books.  But his writing demands that his works be savored." -- Denver Post "Burke is known for the lush bayou cadences that give solid flesh to his longtime series hero, deputy sheriff Dave Robicheaux, and this prose style moves easily to the steamy precincts of southeast Texas." -- Chicago Sun-Times From the Hardcover edition., Critical acclaim for James Lee Burke and the Billy Bob Holland Series: "Burke is a master at setting mood, laying in atmosphere, all with quirky, raunchy dialogue that's a delight." --Elmore Leonard "Billy Bob Holland is as angst-ridden and morally shell-shocked as Dave Robicheaux ever was, but like Robicheaux, Holland's moral compass always points to true north...Don't miss out." -- Rocky Mountain News "Burke [is] one of the best writers of our time.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
