About this product

Product Information

From the Edgar Award-winning author of the Hap and Leonard mysteries comes a shocking crime thriller to chill even the warmest summer's night. By turns vivid, raw, and darkly comedic, this mystery classic inspired the 2014 major motion picture Cold in July , starring Michael C. Hall ( Dexter ) Sam Shepard ( Black Hawk Down ), and Don Johnson ( Miami Vice ). Richard Dane has killed a man. He cannot unhear the firing of the gun or unsee the blood on his living room wall. But everybody in the small town of LaBorde, Texas knows Dane acted in self defense. Everybody except Ben Russel, the ex-con father of the small-time criminal who invaded Dane's home. When Russel comes looking for revenge against Dane's family, the two are unexpectedly drawn into a conspiracy that conceals the vilest of crimes. Surrounded by police corruption, mafia deception, and underworld brutality, Dane, Russel, and eccentric PI Jim Bob Luke have discovered a game they may not survive.

It is dark, it is dangerous, it is wickedly humorous...." -- Looking for a Good Book "[R]ead the book as soon as you can get your hands on a copy." -- Everything Noir Praise for Joe R. Lansdale "A folklorist's eye for telling detail and a front-porch raconteur's sense of pace." - New York Times Book Review "A terrifically gifted storyteller." - Washington Post Book Review "Like gold standard writers Elmore Leonard and the late Donald Westlake, Joe R. Lansdale is one of the more versatile writers in America. -- Los Angeles Times "A zest for storytelling and gimlet eye for detail." -- Entertainment Weekly "Lansdale is an immense talent." - Booklist "Lansdale is a storyteller in the Texas tradition of outrageousness...but amped up to about 100,000 watts." --Houston Chronicle "Lansdale's been hailed, at varying points in his career, as the new Flannery O'Connor, William Faulkner-gone-madder, and the last surviving splatterpunk...sanctified in the blood of the walking Western dead and righteously readable." -- Austin Chronicle, ...a crime fiction classic." — The Novel Pursuit ...impressive Realism-meets- Road House -circa '89 fight-scenes, tailings, and gunfights.... You're sure to finish this book fast, but you're also sure to think on it slowly." — Lit Reactor One of the benefits of Cold in July being made into an independent movie (adapted by screenwriter/actor Nick Damici and directed by Jim Mickle) is this new, movie tie-in edition from Tachyon, Joe R. Landsdale's publisher....a finely told crime story." — Bookgasm "It's a major novel, full of darkness, humor, passion, and truth." -Lewis Shiner, author of Glimpses and Mozart in Mirroshades (with Bruce Sterling) "I can't think of a more remarkable suspense novel in the last few years. Cold in July has it all...." -Ed Gorman, author of The Poker Club " Cold in July is more than a novel of detection; it is an odyssey into the dark recesses of the human psyche...." -Loren D. Estleman, author of Burning Midnight ...told by a master writer...a great novel." — Murder by the Book Lansdale has a dark sense of humor and a brilliant ability to translate physical tension onto the page. In this novel, originally published in 1989 (and a film by the time you read this), he blends crime, southern gothic, and his own brand of East Texas noir. Don't miss it." — Bookshelf Bombshells A character-driven thriller with more twists than an off-the-map dirt road, awards-quality performances from the three leads, a rare sensitivity to the after-effects of horror and a sure directorial hand. — Empire ...this is crime fiction/pulp fiction at its best.
