Beschreibung

'Exceptional' — Crime Review on The Fighter A crooked nose. Scar slices across his forehead. Jack Boucher, he whispered and he shook his head. You ain't nothing but a broken down dirty dog. Le Boucher, he said to himself in the rearview mirror. The butcher. Jack Boucher, a washed-up bare-knuckle fighter, is battling against decades of drug and alcohol abuse when he returns home to find his world in ruins. Set against the desolate backdrop of the Mississippi Delta, the foster mother who saved Jack as a child now rests in a hospice. Her mind eroded by dementia, the family legacy she entrusted to Jack is now owned by banks and strangers. And Jack's own mind is failing. Following a lifetime of fighting, concussion after concussion has forced him to carry around a notebook of names warning him who can be trusted and who should be considered a foe. In a single twisted night, after losing the money that would have cleared his debt with the queen of Delta vice, Jack's life is quickly derailed. Forced into the fighting pit one last time, the stakes are nothing less than life or death. "Jack the Jaw" faces his biggest challenge yet as he must once again fight for his life and everything that was taken from him. A brilliant, gripping novel of endurance and redemption, The Fighter is set to be a major film in 2023 titled Rumble in the Dark starring actors Bella Thorne and Aaron Eckhart. Praise for Michael Farris Smith: 'Equal parts brutal and beautiful and harrowing' — Chris Whitaker 'As violent as it is poetic' — James Sallis 'Powerful and lingering' – New York Journal of Books 'Smith...excels in this dark and violent Southern grit-lit thriller.' — The Library Journal 'Crisply written tale of thwarted lives and rawboned courage' — Booklist
