Harbor Lights is a story collection from one of the most popular and widely acclaimed icons of American fiction, featuring a never-before-published novella. These eight stories move from the marshlands on the Gulf of Mexico to the sweeping plains of Colorado to prisons, saloons, and trailer parks across the South, weaving together love, friendship, violence, survival, and revenge. A boy and his father watch a German submarine sink an oil tanker as evil forces in the disguise of federal agents try to ruin their family. A girl is beaten up outside a bar as her university-professor father navigates new love and threats from a group of neo-Nazis. A pair of undercover union organizers are hired to break colts for a Hollywood actor, whose "Western hero" facade hides darkness. An oil rig worker witnesses a horrific attack on a local village while on a job in South America and seeks justice through one final act of bravery. With his nuanced characters, lyrical prose, and ability to write shocking violence in the most evocative settings, James Lee Burke's singular skills are on display in this superb anthology. Harbor Lights unfolds in stories that crackle and reverberate as unexpected heroes emerge"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20240123. 655 7 $a Short stories. 941 $a 3 952 $l FHPB224 $d 20240321010306.0 952 $l JGPC815 $d 20240312010046.0 952 $l FFPC194 $d 20240213010222.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=963DFAF2CA3D11EEB6B0F94039ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
