If I read this genre, and I do occasionally, I prefer him. This plot revolves around a newly released ex-cop convict, an attempt to murder him, a cop who doesn’t think he did it, and an evil prison warden. The major crime involves murder of beautiful women left as a sacrifice on the altar of an abandoned church. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

"Over 2 million copies of his books in print. The first and only author to win back-to-back Edgars for Best Novel. Every book a New York Times bestseller. Now after five years, John Hart is back with a stunning literary thriller. Imagine: A boy with a gun waits for the man who killed his mother. A troubled detective confronts her past in the aftermath of a brutal shooting. After thirteen years in prison, a good cop walks free. But for how long? And deep in the forest, on the altar of an abandoned church, the unthinkable has just happened... This is a town on the brink. This is a road with no mercy. Since his debut bestseller, The King of Lies, reviewers across the country have heaped praise on John Hart, comparing his writing to that of Pat Conroy, Cormac McCarthy and Scott Turow. With each novel Hart has climbed higher on the New York Times Bestseller list, with his last two books - The Last Child and Iron House - landing squarely in the top ten. His masterful writing and assured evocation of place have won readers around the world and earned history's only consecutive Edgar Awards for Best Novel. After five years, John Hart returns with Redemption Road, his most powerful story yet"-- Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

Adrian Wall is being released from prison after 13 long years for a crime that one detective (Elizabeth Black) did not think he had committed. A young boy Gideon sneaks out of his house, hops a train and goes to a bar where most released prisoners stop. Gideon believes that Wall killed his mother and now he wants revenge.
The book has enough mystery to keep one guessing until the very end; there's possible romance and enough crookedness to keep everyone intrigued. ( )
