{"product_id":"the-bayou-trilogy","title":"The Bayou Trilogy","description":"A hard-hitting, critically acclaimed trilogy of crime novels from an author about whom New York magazine has written, \"What people say about Cormac McCarthy ... goes double for [Woodrell]. Possibly more.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIn the parish of St. Bruno, sex is easy, corruption festers, and double-dealing is a way of life. Rene Shade is an uncompromising detective swimming in a sea of filth. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAs Shade takes on hit men, porn kings, a gang of ex-cons, and the ghosts of his own checkered past, Woodrell's three seminal novels pit long-entrenched criminals against the hard line of the law, brother against brother, and two vastly different sons against a long-absent father.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTHE BAYOU TRILOGY highlights the origins of a one-of-a-kind author, a writer who for over two decades has created an indelible representation of the shadows of the rural American experience and has steadily built a devoted following among crime fiction aficionados and esteemed literary critics alike.","brand":"Blue Vase Bulk","offers":[{"title":"Used \/ 9780316133654-001","offer_id":44542927863869,"sku":"9780316133654-001","price":4.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0589\/4225\/9261\/files\/14819543482300.jpg?v=1794675036","url":"https:\/\/www.bluevasebooks.com\/products\/the-bayou-trilogy","provider":"Blue Vase Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
