Über diesen Titel

 In this rollicking, rollercoaster ride of a novel, Hap Collins and Leonard Pine take a break from their day jobs to search for Florida Grange, Leonard's drop-dead gorgeous lawyer and Hap's former lover, who has vanished in the Klan-infested East Texas town of Grovetown. Before she disappeared, Florida was digging up some dirt behind the mysterious jailhouse death of a legendary black bluesman's son, who was in possession of some priceless blues recordings. To Hap and Leonard, something doesn't smell right. With murder on their minds, Hap and Leonard set out to investigate as only they now how...chaotically.Listen to another Hap and Leonard novel.©2009 Joe R. Lansdale (P)2009 Brilliance Audio, Inc.

Hap and Leonard, the redneck hippy and his black friend, who does not only like to put the houses of drug dealers on fire, but is also gay, have to do a favor to Marvin Hanson, a police lieutenant, to make him forget the latest arson. The two of them have to check on Marvin's girlfriend Florida, who disappeared after she set out to clear up the mysterious suicide of a black guy in a prison cell in Grovetown Texas.

Hap and Leonard are as funny and crazy as before. The storyline is perhaps a little bit thin, but it is full of the usual sarcasm, bitter wit and of course vulgar language. The humor and fun of the language do little to hide the bitter truth about racism and intolerance. Grovetown is a synonym for many places in the south of the US, where business and politics were closely linked with the Klan and the legal system turned a blind eye to crime and abuse of minorities.

It is a good story, nicely told and you might get some laughs, but more often than not with a tear in your eye.

And by the way, Phil Gigante did an outstanding job in reading it.

This is why I love anthologies by J.R.R. Martin. This is one of my finds there and I will continue to look for others. Very funny two guys...

Taken out of the anthology....
