- Synopsis
- This novel of sorrow and suspense, set in rural Montana, is &“a complex and powerful story—put Black River on the must-read list&” (The Seattle Times). Wes Carver returns to his hometown—Black River, Montana—with two things: his wife&’s ashes and a letter from the parole board. The convict who once held him hostage during a prison riot is up for release. For years, Wes earned his living as a correction officer and found his joy playing the fiddle. But the uprising shook Wes&’s faith and robbed him of his music; now he must decide if his attacker should walk free. With &“lovely rhythms, spare language, tenderness, and flashes of rage,&” S. M. Hulse shows us the heart and darkness of an American town, and one man&’s struggle to find forgiveness in the wake of evil (Los Angeles Review of Books).
