The Houndsman (Novel), Omaha, NE
The Houndsman follows big-game hunter Jesse Tindol on her quest to locate a missing child in the backwoods of northern Nevada.
“The Houndsman will explore issues of gender and sexuality, grief and longing, violence and parental love, and secularism and religious fanaticism, expanding on the still-emerging genre of the literary rural noir.”
