Resumen del Editor

In this "captivating" crime novel (People), Texas Ranger Darren Mathews is on the hunt for a missing child - but it's the boy's family of white supremacists who are his real target.

Nine-year-old Levi King knew he should have left for home sooner; now he's alone in the darkness of vast Caddo Lake, in a boat whose motor just died. A sudden noise distracts him - and all goes dark.

Darren Mathews is trying to emerge from another kind of darkness; after the events of his previous investigation, his marriage is in a precarious state of rebuilding, and his career and reputation lie in the hands of his mother, who's never exactly had his best interests at heart. Now she holds the key to his freedom, and she's not above a little maternal blackmail to press her advantage.

An unlikely possibility of rescue arrives in the form of a case down Highway 59, in a small lakeside town where the local economy thrives on nostalgia for antebellum Texas - and some of the era's racial attitudes still thrive as well. Levi's disappearance has links to Darren's last case, and to a wealthy businesswoman, the boy's grandmother, who seems more concerned about the fate of her business than that of her grandson.

Darren has to battle centuries-old suspicions and prejudices, as well as threats that have been reignited in the current political climate, as he races to find the boy, and to save himself.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"JD Jackson needs the range of a grand piano to do justice to Attica Locke's East Texas, and his skills and appealing baritone have it covered.... Locke is protecting no one here, and Jackson makes these flawed, believable characters a pleasure to love or hate. Add some antebellum fantasy tourist trap fraudsters, and you have a distinctly uncozy puzzle for our time, beautifully performed." (AudioFile magazine)

"In addition to her gifts for tight pacing and intense lyricism, Locke shows with this installment of her Highway 59 series a facility for unraveling the tangled strands of the Southwest's cultural legacy and weaving them back together with the volatile racial politics and traumatic economic stresses of the present day.... Locke's advancement here is so bracing that you can't wait to discover what happens next along her East Texas highway." (Kirkus, starred review)

"Locke makes the complex backstory accessible. This one's another Edgar contender." (Publishers Weekly, starred review)

"This is a beautifully and instantly gripping crime novel.... Locke is one of the emerging stars of crime fiction." (Booklist, starred review)

Great Story

There were so many relevant and relatable thoughts conveyed in the telling of this story. I thoroughly enjoyed the depth of the journey the book took you on through race, politics and internal struggle to be the best version of yourself. Great story!

Perfect!

It takes an amazing writer to evoke compassion for characters that you know you should hate. A great read with a twist that I didn't see coming...and I always see them coming. Can't wait for the next book in this series.

A tougher start, but I couldnt put it down

This has a tougher start than the first book, but if you like reading about making bad decisions...this is the book for you. The character and performance make up for a few areas in the story that felt contrived. I do recommend this book.

I'm really enjoying Attica Locke

This is the third Attica Locke book I've listened to, and I look forward to hearing more. These books are gritty and the racism is painful, but the characters and their stories are wonderful.

Fabulous

I absolutely love Attica Locke’s books. She is an amazing story teller. Her insight into human behavior makes the characters really come alive. I can’t say enough about her writing. Phenomenal. Love JD Jackson’s narration also. Perfect.
