Beskrivning
The acres and acres of fertile soil, the two-hundred year old antebellum house, all gone.And so is the woman who gave it to him. The foster mother who saved Jack Boucher from a childhood of abandonment now rests in a hospice. Her mind eroded by dementia, the family legacy she entrusted to Jack is now owned by banks and strangers. And Jack's mind is failing too, as concussion after concussion forces him to carry around a notebook of names that separate friend from foe.In a single twisted night Jack is derailed. Losing the money that will clear his debt with the queen of Delta vice, and forcing Jack into the fighting pit one last time. The stakes - nothing less than life or death.

Recensioner i media

Like living language, literary modes have both a formal and a demotic form. What we call "noir" is high tragedy brought down to the forgotten and disavowed -- the fallen, who can do little but go on falling. Ours to witness the beauty and power of their fall. With The Fighter, cleaving to tradition, Michael Farris Smith brings that tradition brilliantly into the present
