In "Splits in the Skin" John Tucker told a troubling tale of a bounty hunter, Ellis Hardigree, trying to bring in a bail jumper named Moses Bailey who turns out to be the leader of a North Georgia religious cult.  Moses heads up the incestuous inbred cult that is known to kill strangers no matter what their business.  With only an aging local sheriff and a girl called Smitty, Ellise is woefully outnumbered against Moses and the Bailey clan until he enlists the help of the neighboring Tunnel Hill clan. The violence in this story is both real and imagined. It is brilliantly written by a man who knows how to grab your attention and not let got.
