- Synopsis
- An Ozarks rancher takes a desperate gamble in this searing novel from &“one of the truly great American writers of the 20th century&” (The Guardian). Bob Blanchard spent his entire inheritance on a cattle ranch in the Missouri Ozarks—but it hasn&’t turned out the way he&’d hoped, and he&’s now being threatened with foreclosure. The cattle are sick, and the herd can&’t survive, so Blanchard agrees to a reckless scheme to sell the cattle before their illness is widely known. But when a faked cattle rustling and an insurance scam goes wrong, the plan begins to crumble from the inside out. &“A commanding writer of unusual delicacy and power.&” —The New Yorker &“A born storyteller.&” —St. Louis Post-Dispatch
