Willnot, Paperback / softback Book

Willnot Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

In the woods outside the town of Willnot, the remains of several people have been discovered, unnerving the community and unsettling Dr. Lamar Hale, the town's all-purpose general practitioner, surgeon and town conscience. At the same time, Bobby Lowndes - his military records missing, and followed by the FBI - mysteriously reappears in his hometown, at Hale's door.

Over the ensuing months, the daily dramas Hale faces as he tends to his town and to his partner, Richard, collide with the inexplicable vagaries of life in Willnot. And when a gunshot aimed at Lowndes critically wounds Richard, Hale's word is truly upended. In his inimitable spare style, James Sallis conjures indelible characters and scenes that resonate long after they appear. 'You live with someone year after year, you think you've heard all the stories,' Lamar observes, 'but you never have.'
