Point of Impact hero Bob Swagger is back and in hot pursuit of the man who killed his father. (May)
Only one thing stands between a son and his father's killer: forty years of lies. . .
On a remote Arizona ranch, a man who has known loss, fear, and war weeps for the first time since he was a child.**His tears are for the father taken from him four decades before in a deadly shoot-out.**And his grief will lead him back to the place where he was born, where his father died, and where a brutal conspiracy is about to explode.
For Bob Lee Swagger, the world changed on that hot day in Blue Eye, Arkansas, when two local boys rode armed and wild in a '55 Fairlane convertible. Swagger's father, Earl, a state trooper, was investigating the brutal murder of a young woman that day.**By midnight Earl Swagger lay dead in a deserted cornfield.
Now Bob Lee wants answers.**He wants to know the truth behind the shoot -out that took his father's life, a mystery buried in forty years of lies.**Because for Bob Lee Swagger, the killing didn't end that day in Blue Eye, Arkansas. The killing had just begun . . .
Weaving together characters from his national bestsellers Point of Impact and Dirty White Boys, Stephen Hunter's gripping thriller builds to an exhilarating climax-and an explosion of gunfire that blasts open the secrets of two generations.
Praise for*Black Light*
“Put on your seat belt-Black Light*is a wild ride you won't forget.”-The Chicago Tribune
“Nobody writes action better than Stephen Hunter and*Black Light*is one of his best. . . [The] action scenes play like a movie, the plot is intriguing and the writing is top-notch.”-Phillip Margolin
“Only a handful of writers today can match Hunter for imagination and the ability to make a reader's adrenaline rush.”-New York Daily News
“Filled with detail, clever plotting, suspense, and a hunt to the death that leaves the reader dry-mouthed with tension. Hunter knows his guns, and he writes about them with a precision that holds the attention of even a fervent anti-gun supporter.”-The Orlando Sentinel
“One of the most skilled hands in the thriller business. The plot is fast-paced, well-constructed and builds to a pulse-pounding night ambush. . . . It should seal his reputation as an author who not only can write bestselling thrillers, but write them exceedingly well.”-Publishers Weekly
