The Bayou Trilogy Publisher's summary

In the parish of St. Bruno, sex is easy, corruption festers, and double-dealing is a way of life—and Rene Shade is an uncompromising detective swimming in a sea of filth in this hard-hitting, critically acclaimed trilogy of crime novels.

As Shade takes on hit men, porn kings, a gang of ex-cons, and the ghosts of his own checkered past, Woodrell's three seminal novels pit long-entrenched criminals against the hard line of the law, brother against brother, and two vastly different sons against a long-absent father.

The Bayou Trilogy highlights the origins of a one-of-a-kind author, a writer who for over two decades created an indelible representation of the shadows of the rural American experience and steadily built a devoted following among crime fiction aficionados and esteemed literary critics alike.

“What people say about Cormac McCarthy ... goes double for [Woodrell]. Possibly more.” —New York magazine
