Sheriff Hackberry Holland patrols a small Southwest Texas border town with a deep and abiding respect for the citizens in his care. Still mourning the loss of his cherished wife and locked in a perilous almost-romance with his deputy, Pam Tibbs, a woman many decades his junior, Hackberry feeds off the deeds of evil men to keep his own demons at bay.

Another JLB masterpiece. Rich prose, great storyline and incredible characters, all interwoven by one of the great American storytellers. My late dear Dad recommended JLB almost 10 years ago and I've read all his work. Feast Day of Fools is one of my favourites. Will Patten narrates superbly. Highly recommended.

A Great Read!

Having listened to the previous book in this series I was anxious that the narration of this one might not be as good. However Will Patton nails the voices and the plot is excellent. A great listen!

Cracking Hack tale

I have read and listened to many of Burkes books and they have always been a pleasure, though sometimes in a toe-curling kind of way! This one is no exception, a great listen and the narration was excellent.

Burke never lets you down

Will Patton gives great voice on this reading, and the storytelling is superb. Burke's style is always evident conjuring vivid images in the imagination. I'm trying to get hold of Rain Gods - the prequel to this, but Patton's version isn't available. I might have to open an account on audible.com just to get it. Great stuff.

Excellent

I've been reading J.L.B. for years now and he just gets better and better.His prose and sense of place and atmosphere are almost poetic. His characters spring "alive" from the page and stick in your mind like mollasses on a flies feet. Compelling.

A Genius
