Heartwood by James Lee Burke
A Billy Bob Holland Novel
Publisher: Island Books
Price: $1.99 (as of 10/17/2016 at 3:00 PM ET).
Heartwood is a kind of tree that grows in layers. And as Billy Bob's grandfather once told him, you do well in life by keeping the roots in a clear stream and not letting anyone taint the water for you. But in Holland's dusty little hometown of Deaf Smith, in the hill country north of Austin, local kingpin Earl Deitrich has made a fortune running roughshod and tainting anyone who stands in his way. Billy Bob has problems with Deitrich and his shamelessly callous demeanor, but can't shake the legacy of his passion for Deitrich's "heartbreak-beautiful" wife, Peggy Jean.
When Holland takes on the defense of Wilbur Pickett — a man accused of stealing an heirloom and three hundred thousand dollars in bonds from Deitrich's office — he finds himself up against not only Earl's power and influence, but also a past Billy Bob can't will away.
— Heartwood by James Lee Burke
