Texas attorney and former Texas Ranger Billy Bob
Holland has many secrets. Among them is Vernon Smother's
son, Lucas, a now-teenaged boy about whom few know the
truth -- Lucas is really Billy Bob's illegitimate son.
When Lucas is arrested for murder, Billy Bob must confront
the past and serve as the boy's criminal attorney.
Billy Bob knows the propensity of the town, Deaf Smith,
Texas, to make scapegoats out of the innocent and to
exploit and sexually use the powerless. During Lucas's
trial, Billy Bob realizes that he will have to bring
injury upon Lucas as well as himself in order to save his
son. As a result, Billy Bob incurs enemies that are far
more dangerous than any he faced as a Texas Ranger.
With the same electric language and hard-edged style
that brought James Lee Burke's Dave Robicheaux novels to
the forefront of American crime fiction, Cimarron
Rose explodes with a new, evocative setting that will
establish Billy Bob Holland as James Lee Burke's next
great character.
