Don’t you want to read a thriller series where the murders, highway chases, place names, etc. are right here in Mississippi?
Don’t you want to read about Mississippi small town Sheriff that can’t be bought by the local politicians?
Don’t you want to read about pick-up trucks and cigars and whiskey?
I loved The Ranger, but the new Ace Atkins book in The Ranger series – The Lost Ones – proves that Quinn Colson is a force to be reckoned with in Summer reading man-fiction. I’m telling you I couldn’t put this book down. We’ve got gun running and baby saving and woman kissing. It’s all here, for example:
A couple roustabouts had been asking about guns at the Tibbehah County Fair, but by the time the word had gotten back to Donnie Varner, they’d long since packed up their Ferris wheel , corn dog stands and shit, and boogie on down the highway. He’d tried for them at a rodeo up in Eupora and the fall festival over in Hernando, but it wasn’t until he pulled off the highway into a roadside carnival in Byhalia, Mississippi, that he knew he had the right spot.
I don’t usually say this kind of thing, but I can’t wait to see who plays The Ranger in the movie.
Come see Ace today at 5:00 for a signing and reading to follow at 5:30!
