CLYDE WISHAM
This is one of the best crime novels I have read. There are three main characters. The first is young mother traveling with two little daughters and a dog. The other two are a smooth talking fixer and a stone-cold killer, both employed by a New Orleans mob boss.
Their stories intertwine as they make their ways across the country. Each is transformed by their journey, but in very different ways. Lots of interesting characters encountered along the way add color to the story. Things get very tense, life altering decisions have to be made, and the body count gets high.
I really cannot say much more without giving things away. (I recommend avoiding the publisher's cover text, which I think gives way too much detail.) Just read and enjoy.
