Description
Reminiscent of James Lee Burke and David Joy, Not Dark Yet is a country-noir novel about family, loss, redemption, and murder.
"A worthy read and crafted with such an immersive intimacy of the South you can almost feel the humidity, smell the dirt roads and taste the desperation." -- Amazon review of Boogie House
Preston Wyatt has always been reluctant to associate with the family he left behind twenty years ago.
Now that his father's dead, he's returned home to clean up some business before heading out again.
He's got a little girl and a complicated relationship with his ex.
The only problem is, his neighbor on the other side of their property is Montgomery 'Monty' Davenport, a greedy, monstrous -- not to mention rich -- individual. He owns all the surrounding land, and his final act seems to be to strongarm the Wyatt brothers into giving up their one little plot.
They're tired of fighting. Tired of crippling and killing one another over dirt and grass and trees.
Convinced that the do-nothing sheriff will take their neighbor's side, the brothers try to handle the situation on their own. Amicably. Without force.
But when an accomplice of Monty's ends up dead on their property, the Wyatt brothers decide to fight back one last time... with deadly results.
Not Dark Yet is the newest southern crime novel from T. Blake Braddy, author of the Rolson McKane series. If you like gritty thrillers by the likes of David Joy or James Lee Burke, you're going to love Not Dark Yet.
"A solid detective story clearly influenced by a southern state of mind. There is a love for that setting, blues, and a certain twang that just oozes from the pages. Overall I enjoyed watching the mystery slowly unravel, and i really liked all the characters that got introduced." -- Amazon Review of Boogie House
