Synopsis
Sarah Jane Pullman is a good cop with a complicated past. From her smalltown chicken-farming roots through her runaway adolescence, court-ordered Army stint, ill-advised marriage and years slinging scrambled eggs over greasy spoon griddles, Sarah Jane unfolds her life story, a parable about memory, atonement, and finding shape in chaos. Her life takes an unexpected turn when she finds herself named the de facto sheriff of a rural town, investigating the mysterious disappearance of the sheriff whose shoes she's filling and the even more mysterious realities of the life he was hiding from his own colleagues and closest friends.A spare, sparkling tour de force about one woman's journey to becoming a cop, by master of noir James Sallis, author of Drive.Praise for the author: “Sallis creates vivid images in very few words and his taut, pared-down prose is distinctive and powerful.
