Publisher's summary

When a young black man is lynched in a small Alabama town, his estranged father - a crime world enforcer - sets out for revenge, embarking on a blood-soaked journey that will leave the ravaged bodies of dead Klansmen in his wake.

"Rausch unleashes a flurry of gut-punches both painful and thrilling; his prose brimming with righteous anger and stark, no-bullshit wit. This racially charged and crackling tale reads like a startling mash-up of Jim Thompson and Iceberg Slim, making Bloody Sheets that rare achievement: hardboiled and hard-hitting, but transcendently heartfelt as well." (Wesley Strick, screenwriter of Cape Fear)

Not for the faint-hearted, or racists.

I got this one because I liked his other book, Savage Brooklyn, so much. It’s definitely more serious than that one, especially because of the subject matter, and more violent, definitely inspired by Quentin T. I cringed in a lot of places, but only because of the language coming out of the mouths of the racist a-holes.

Again, the narration by Art Brown is really good. I don’t know from regional accents, but I think Mr. Brown really made the characters come to life with his voicing of each one. You always know who’s speaking. You immediately get lost in the story!

Ultimately a very satisfying book, and I definitely recommend! I look forward to more collabs from Andy and Art.

Great story, but not for the faint of heart

The story is entertaining though very graphic and brutal. The subject matter and the language are clearly rated "R." The author does a fine job of leading the reader/listener on a walk though a slice of southern life. I enjoyed the story.

The best thing about this audio book is the narration. Mr. Brown does a fine job of narrating in three ways. First is the emotion he puts into the characters. He does an excellent job of bringing them to life without overacting or resorting to shouting or whispering. Second, the narration of the different voices. It is difficult to get an accurate and constant portrayal of different characters with different accents, inflections and voices, but Mr. Brown is a master of it. Finally is the pacing. Just enough changes of pace to keep the listener engaged and attentive. I rate the narration five star!
