The Bastard Hand
"In the storied waking-up-into-a-nightmare pulp tradition, Heath Lowrance's The Bastard Hand reads is a lurid thrill. You will finish it in one frenzied sitting, then feel as if you're awakening from a red-misted trance." --Megan Abbott, author of Bury Me Deep"A bastard of a good book. If you like Flannery O'Connor and Jim Thompson, you're going to love this." --Allan Guthrie, author of Slammer"Mean, tough, lurid, intense, and entirely engaging, this novel is a must read for all fans of the hardboiled genre." --Vincent Zandri, author of Moonlight Falls"The Bastard Hand by Heath Lowrance  grabs you by the lapels and drags you on a wild, wild bar crawl that leaves you battered and bruised at the gates of hell. Like Jim Thomspon  jamming with Robert Johnson and Nick Cave on the eve of the apocolypse."  --Paul D. Brazil, Pulp Metal Magazine
