Where Armadillos Go To Die
James Hime

Sylvester Bradshaw owns the Bouree restaurant, home of the best catfish in Brenham, Texas. He’s also known to be one of the most unpleasant residents of Brenham, and not just because he’s stubborn, racist, and mean. Sylvester also happens to have invented a machine that several venture capitalists and one former NFL star would like to invest in, but he’s not sharing. When the restaurant is ransacked and he goes missing, the only person willing to take his disappearance seriously is Jeremiah Spur. The retired Texas Ranger and rancher is a dedicated customer if not a friend, and decidedly more competent than the local law enforcement.

James Hime’s Where Armadillos Go to Die eloquently captures the voice of a small Texas town with big troubles.
