Fantastic book! In my opinion, Jim Thompson remains the greatest crime writer of all time. Jo Nesbo, another renowned author, has praised Thompson's work, stating that he is the best suspense writer currently working, without any competition. The New York Times has also recognized Thompson's exceptional talent, describing him as holding a special place in the author's heart.

Bruce Springsteen, a renowned musician, has expressed his admiration for Thompson's writing. Springsteen has mentioned that he enjoys reading Thompson's books and considers him a talented writer.

Nick Corey, the high sheriff of Potts County, appears to have a fulfilling job. However, Nick faces several challenges that he needs to address. These challenges include his loveless marriage, the constant torment he receives from pimps, the honest man who is running against him in the upcoming elections, and the women who are infatuated with him.

It turns out that Nick is not as amiable, easy-going, or as slow as he appears. In reality, he is as sly, brutal, and corrupt as they come. His true nature is revealed as the story progresses, and readers are taken on a thrilling journey through his dark and complex world.
