A nightmare thriller with the power to haunt.\" - Kirkus Reviews Starred Review  \"Jones is a rare stylist - readers looking for an intense  affecting experience shouldnt miss this one.\" - Peter Handel  Pages Magazine  \"An artful novel enlivened by some of the best low-life dialogue this side of Elmore Leonard.\" - Patrick Andersen  The Washington Post  \"Superlatives have been sapped of their meaning by overzealous critics  and somehow it sounds fake to say that a book is one of the \"best things\" youve \"read all year.\" Its just that  sometimes as in the case of Matthew F. Joness \"Boot Tracks\" that happens to be true. I havent read something that made me empathize with a bad guy this intensely since I read \"In Cold Blood\" in high school.\" - Katie Haegele  The Philadelphia Inquirer  \"The sense of horrible inevitability is almost overpowering here. If only Jean-Pierre Melville (Bob le Flambeur) were still alive to make the movie version.\" - Bill Ott  Booklist  \"Boot Tracks  by Matthew F. Jones  is a stunning crime novel - and one you wont soon forget.\" - Guy Savage  Mostly Fiction Book Reviews  Boot Tracks is a commanding tale of a man and a woman struggling against a destiny they cannot control  told in Matthew F. Jones characteristically taut  economic style. An assassination gone terribly wrong; a couple searching for one last chance to find a safe place in a hostile world. With these elements Jones weaves a harrowing tale of suspense  violence and compassion.  Charlie Rankin has recently been released from prison  but prison has not released its grip on him. He owes his life to \"The Buddha \" who has given him a job to do on the outside: he must kill a man  a man who has done him no harm  a man he has never met. Along the road to this brutal encounter  Rankin meets Florence  who may be an angel in disguise or simply a lonely ex porn star seeking salvation. Together they careen towards their fate  taking the reader along for the ride.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67922796576821,"sku":"ByrdShop_1933372117","price":68.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781933372112.jpg?v=1794087250","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/boot-tracks-9781933372112","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
