Lapena S: Getting Away With Murder

Getting Away With Murder

Mick Hardin Novels

Master storyteller Chris Offutt’s acclaimed crime series has been praised by Ian Rankin as “righteous Kentucky noir with top notes of Daniel Woodrell and S. A. Cosby,” and in this breakneck new novel, sheriff Mick Hardin navigates the treacherous terrain of a town’s festering secrets and the violent forces who want to keep them hidden

Lauded as a “masterclass in the craft of crime fiction” (CrimeReads), Chris Offutt’s beloved and critically acclaimed Mick Hardin series is an atmospheric, tightly crafted testament to Southern noir. The Reluctant Sheriff is a dark, bracing return to the hills of eastern Kentucky where secrets roil beneath the surface, and nothing and no one stays in the past for long.

Mick Hardin never wanted to be sheriff. An ex-Army CID officer, he’s supposed to be retired—or he was until his sister, Linda, was shot in the line of duty, requiring him to step in as interim sheriff while she recovered. Now he’s stuck in Rocksalt, the place he was most hoping to escape.

Back in uniform, Mick is chafing at the sudden dissolution of his retirement plans, wearied by the petty squabbles of Rocksalt’s townsfolk. It’s all business as usual, until the murder of a local bar owner draws an unlikely suspect who threatens to fan the flames of Mick’s past. When two more bodies turn up, seemingly unconnected to the first, Mick is forced to reckon with the mysterious circumstances of a case not so open-and-shut as everyone believes. Meanwhile, Linda is slowly healing when a familiar business tycoon with a vested interest in her returning as sheriff makes it difficult for her to remain on the sidelines.

Unflinching and devilishly compulsive, The Reluctant Sheriff is an explosive thriller confirming Chris Offutt as a Southern writer of muscular prose and unrivaled talent.

Poems for hopeful hearts

Loves of Our Lives

Two lovers plot a daring heist in this atmospheric noir about fate and fortune on the fringes of the American dream.
Post-war Riverton has little to offer Richard, a mild-mannered loner working a dead-end job at Eddy &amp; Dowd Safe Deposit Company. When he meets Marlon, a smooth-talking confidence man, Richard finds his partner in crime. Passions ignite between the men, and together, they hatch a plan to rob the vault at Eddy &amp; Dowd-a once-in-a-lifetime score that will fund their escape to the Big City, where they can live and love as they desire.
Their plans are complicated by Gloria, a recent divorcée scheming her own route to wealth; Frank Todd, a disgraced ex-cop desperate to restore his reputation; and the paranoid Mr. Dowd, a tycoon scrambling to hold onto his crumbling empire. As Richard and Marlon race towards their destiny, reckless violence threatens both their plans and their devotion to each other.
Inspired by the iconic lexicon and unsparing storytelling of Raymond Chandler and Patricia Highsmith, The Longest Death weaves a twisted morality tale about what it means to love someone at any cost.

"The answer is to become shameless," she concluded. "How can you shame a shameless woman?" BRIDGET JONES MEETS KARL MARX 'A one-woman literary-political movement' INDEPENDENT 'Kandasamy's work becomes more bold and exciting with each new book' SKINNY 'There has never been a book quite like this' IRISH TIMES Amrita has a past. In London, she goes by Amy - the cool girl who's woker than you - but spends most days gallivanting with the other Little India rich kids. Until an AI porno of her 'forwarded many times' by meddling WhatsApp aunties suddenly appears everywhere for millions to view. Within a day, she's being publicly stoned in the digital town square by an anonymous operation of Hindu extremist incels. Together with her allies including her suitably poor and dark bestie, a fling nicknamed the Child Solider, and the insufferable trustafarian India, the unlikely trio take a page out of the Kardashian workbook and flip the script. Will it work, or has the bait unknowingly fed herself into the belly of an underground beast that will not rest until she, too, is below ground? How far are you actually willing to go for what you say you believe in? For readers of Fundamentally and I'M A FAN, Fieldwork as a Sex Object is a novel about having skin in the game, leaving no stone unthrown back at the incel manosphere and and its hand in the rise of fascism. -- 'Defies all expectations' BERNARDINE EVARISTO 'So so good.
