Highway 59 Séries

Cette série explore les réalités complexes de l'Est du Texas, où les forces de l'ordre naviguent souvent dans des tensions raciales profondément ancrées et des loyautés personnelles. Suivez un Texas Ranger noir alors qu'il affronte son propre passé conflictuel tout en enquêtant sur des affaires difficiles dans des communautés isolées. Les récits explorent les préjugés, l'ambiguïté morale et la recherche de la justice dans un monde où les frontières entre le bien et le mal sont souvent floues. C'est une exploration captivante de l'identité et du devoir en marge de la société.

When it comes to law and order, East Texas plays by its own rules - a fact that Darren Mathews, a black Texas Ranger working the backwoods towns of Highway 59, knows all too well. Deeply conflicted about his home state, he was the first in his family to get as far away from Texas as he could. Until duty called him back.So when allegiance to his roots puts his job in jeopardy, he travels up Highway 59 to the small town of Lark, where two murders - a black lawyer from Chicago and a local white woman - have stirred up a hornet's nest of resentment. Darren must solve the crimes - and save himself in the process - before Lark's long-simmering racial fault lines erupt.'In Bluebird, Bluebird Attica Locke had both mastered the thriller and exceeded it. Ranger Darren Mathews is tough, honor-bound, and profoundly alive in corrupt world. I loved everything about this book.' Ann Patchett'Locke's writing is both sharp-edged and lyrical. This is thoughtful, piercing storytelling with the power to transport.' Diana Evans, Financial Times
