In the summer of 1976, Jesse and his brother Edgar embarked on a relentless journey, seeking out victims to satisfy their insatiable hunger. They were rovers, nocturnal creatures with near-indestructible bodies that required human blood to survive. For seventy years, they had lurked on the fringes of society, moving from town to town, staying in dingy motels, preying on transients, addicts, and prostitutes. This gripping supernatural tale unfolds when the brothers encounter a young woman who disrupts their macabre routine, forcing Jesse to confront his past and plunge his present into a deadly chaos as he desperately tries to save her life. The story is told from the perspectives of the brothers, a grieving father searching for his son's murderer, and a violent gang of rover bikers, culminating in a shattering conclusion in Las Vegas on the eve of America's Bicentennial. Richard Lange's writing is praised for its precision, tight control, and ability to keep readers on the edge of their seats. "Rovers" has been hailed as a masterpiece, showcasing Lange's expertise as a writer. It was a finalist for the 2022 Killer Nashville Silver Falchion Award, a testament to its excellence in the genre.
