Description de l’éditeur

The Book of Boar: Bounty Hunter is a genre-bending, hard-boiled crime thriller with a wicked satirical edge. It tells the extraordinary tale of William ‘Boar’ Summers, a washed-up-police-detective-turned-fugitive-recovery-agent who sets off in search of a senator’s prodigal son and uncovers a sinister conspiracy which leads him on a breakneck ride across a Mytho-modern American landscape and brings him into conflict with a cast of memorable characters from all walks of life. Along the way, Boar struggles with his many demons including anger, alcoholism and hypocrisy, as he grapples to make headway with the toughest case of his career.

However, his greatest challenge comes in the form of Lily Jane, his eleven year old daughter, the issue of his failed marriage, who is foisted upon him when his ex-wife enters a rehabilitation programme. In spite of himself, Boar discovers that he needs his daughter’s approval, and this dynamic creates a hilarious tension which lends a darkly comic tone to the narrative. As they hurtle along together on this compelling, picaresque odyssey, Lily assumes the role of Boar’s conscience and it soon becomes clear that the true objective of their mission is to salvage a broken family and to help the protagonist to face his mounting personal problems and take control of his life.

In the words of the protagonist and narrator of this volume-
"I have titled this story 'The Book of Boar', and although it may shock and offend some folks, maybe even break the hearts of some others, it will NOT bore you."
