His lawyer, former Texas Ranger Billy Bob Holland, is convinced of Lucas's innocence--but proving it means unearthing the truth from the seething mass of deceit and corruption that spreads like wildfire in a gossipy small town where everybody knows everybody else's business. <p/>Billy Bob's relationship with Lucas's family is not an easy one. Years back he was a close friend of Mrs. Smothers--too close, according to her husband. But when Lucas overhears gruesome tales of serial murder from a neighboring cell in the local lock-up, he himself looks like a candidate for an untimely death, and Billy Bob incurs enemies far more dangerous than any he faced as a Ranger. <p/>With the same electric language and hard-edged style that brought James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux novels to the forefront of American crime fiction, <i>Cimarron Rose</i> explodes with a harsh, evocative setting and unforgettable characters.<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>James Lee Burke is a <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author, two-time winner of the Edgar Award, and the recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship for Creative Arts in Fiction.
