West Texas Sheriff Woodrow “Booger” Burkett is in a quandary that just keeps getting worse. Married, he’s having an affair with the wife of Blackthorne’s most notorious criminal when she is found dead, the victim of a contract killing. An outlaw biker gang, the Ghosts of the Confederate Dead, is implicated, and the investigation pulls Burkett into a dark world of intrigue and violence. Can he find the way out with his honor and dignity intact? The answer lies in his own heart, and the denouement of “The Honeycutts of Blackthorne” by West Texas newspaperman James R. Campbell may astonish you. Done in Campbell’s inimitable style of naturalistic super realism, it will take you deep into Blackthorne’s farm, ranch and oil country where the cicadas are always singing and another tale of passion and tragedy is always on the way.
