The officer followed Charm over the course of the next couple of months, leading Jamar to videotape and take notes on the cop and his partner. The next thing Louise hears, Jamar got in a fight and is killed in the projects by local hoods.

But if anyone can navigate these pitfalls and bring the killers to justice, it's Hap and Leonard.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>Filled with Lansdale's trademark whip-smart dialogue, colorful characters, and relentless pacing, <i>Rusty Puppy</i> is Joe Lansdale at his page-turning best.</p>.
