Overview
Chris Offutt is a literary master across genres, and his most recent novel THE KILLING HILLS was one of his most successful, earning him a new audience and earning praise from the likes of The New York Times, the Wall Street Journal, and Crime Reads. His latest book, Shiftyās Boys, is a compelling, propulsive thriller of murder and mayhem in the hills of eastern Kentucky.
Mick Hardin is home on leave, recovering from an IED attack, when a body is found in the center of town. Itās Barney Kissick, the local heroin dealer, and the city police see it as an occupational hazard. But when Barneyās mother, Shifty, asks Mick to take a look, it seems thereās more to the killing than it seems. Mick should be rehabbing his leg, signing his divorce papers, and getting out of townāand most of all, staying out of the way of his sister Lindaās reelection as Sheriffābut he keeps on looking, and suddenly heās getting shot at himself.
A dark, pacy crime novel about grief and revenge, and the surprises hidden below the surface, Shiftyās Boys is a tour de force that confirms Chris Offuttās Mick Hardin as one of the most appealing new investigators in fiction.
