They Left Me For DEAD (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781956784022)

From award-winning author J. M. Holmes, a tightly-wound tale of passion, murder and greed.

This hardboiled noir crime novel, set in the arid West Texas scrublands, dives deep into dark, dangerous places populated by a host of seedy and corrupt characters.

Whether fighting to avoid the hordes of Assassin Bugs that have colonized the region, or working to stay one step ahead of drug-dealers, Mafia hitmen and Mexican cartels, our hero is finding life in this sleepy area of the southern US isn't quite as peaceful as appearances suggest.

Featuring a new breed of frontier hero drawn into a tangled web of murder, corruption, and betrayal, the novel's earthy realism and harsh reality explore the dark underbelly of a corrupt world.

They Left Me for Dead will draw you in and soon have you sweating along with its hero in the hot, dry Texas Chaparral.
