This is a great book for gaining an understanding of the late 1950's. I listened to it and then passed it on to my 19 year old daughter, so that she could get an idea about that era. It is well written and so exciting in places that I had to pull of the road. I highly recommend this book.
This was the first of Joe Lansdale's books I have listened to and I am hoping to listen to all of the audio CD books of his I can find. I loved how the author kept me glued. It was such a refreshing change without all the complicated characters and detailed twists. Having listened to it in one day while I quilted away, I found it sad when the story ended. I also enjoy most all the books that are narrated by Dick Hill, as this one was. I certainly give it 5 stars and a thumbs up.
