Beschreibung
A haunting and compulsive debut novel that explores the aftershock of a brutal crime on the women of a small Texas oil town. Narrated by a cast of indelible characters who burrow deep in the reader's heart, Valentine is a fiercely gripping, darkly funny and surprisingly tender novel about hope, and fear, and justice - and the many different forms that courage can take. With the haunting emotional power of "American Dirt" and the atmospheric suspense of "Where the Crawdads Sing".
