Synopsis
Set in the gutted, devastated remains of the American South in the aftermath of the Civil War, Son of Perdition follows a Union soldier named Samuel Glazer as he tracks down the Confederate guerillas that brutally murdered his family. Glazer, however, is no ordinary man, and his unholy quest for vengeance is as insatiable as it is destructive. Former sheriff and Confederate soldier Lee Sinclair wants nothing more than to live a quiet life as a blacksmith. When he returned from the war unharmed, he promised his wife Kate that he would never again put himself in harm's way. After a local family is brutally murdered, Lee is blackmailed by a rich plantation owner into pursuing Glazer.Accompanied by two psychotic bounty hunters, Lee soon realizes that this is more than a simple manhunt: It's a journey through the darkest recesses of a land shattered by war.

Review
"A gripping, brutal tale of revenge and devastation." -- Kirkus Reviews
"Harms delivers an atmospheric narrative enriched by incisive descriptions and a vivid sense of place. The novel is reminiscent of classic westerns in terms of structure, tone, and plot elements, but its literary undercurrents allow it to stand apart. Readers may draw comparisons to Patrick deWitt's The Sisters Brothers."
-- The BookLife Prize
"William Harmsshoots from the hip in this brilliant and heartbreaking novel of bitter lossand hot-blooded revenge. Highly recommended."
--JonathanMaberry, New York Times best-selling author of Ghostwalkers and KillSwitch
"A relentless, unflinching story told through prose that is both spare and sweeping -- reminiscent of the hard but breathtaking landscape crossed by Harms' complex anti-heroes. Son of Perdition haunts you well after the final bullet is fired." --W. Haden Blackman, award-winning writer of Star Wars: The Force Unleashed and Batwoman
"William Harms waits for you in the dark, penning tales of murder, madness, and misery. Sometimes his grim words bite at your soul, but they're woven so expertly and his characters are so intriguing--so desperate--that you can't stop yourself from pressing on to see how it all turns out. I know my Weird Westerns, and Harms nails the coffin tight every time." --Shane Hensley, creator of Deadlands
