    If the world of supernatural creatures is just a bunch of hokum, why does Boston PD have their own paranormal division?

    Sergeant Chloe Mayfield doesn’t think so, but her one cop mission to find the real killer clashes with her orders and she’s already on shaky ground with the higher-ups. All they need is one good reason and she’s out of a job.

    Right or wrong, there is a sinister force at work in Boston’s seedy underbelly and Chloe is the only cop in town trying to prevent the next murder. 
     
    She’ll figure it out, be sure of that, but as she gets closer to the truth, will she discover it was always a trap?

    "Equal parts vintage crime novel and Southern Gothic, full of aching ambivalence and hard compromises, and rounded off by bad faith and bad choices, One Foot in Eden is a veritable garden of earthly disquiet." —Los Angeles Times 
     
     
     
    Will Alexander is the sheriff in a small town in southern Appalachia, and he knows that the local thug Holland Winchester has been murdered. The only thing is the sheriff can find neither the body nor someone to attest to the killing. Simply, almost elementally told through the voices of the sheriff, a local farmer, his beautiful wife, their son, and the sheriff's deputy, One Foot in Eden signals the bellwether arrival of Ron Rash, one the most mature and distinctive voices in Southern literature.
