Dirty White Boys

Stephen Hunter

Three convicts escape from a maximum-security penitentiary. With guile, fury, and surprisingly fine manners, they slash and shoot their way through Oklahoma and North Texas in a frenzy of violence, madness, and murder. And they're having a damn good time. Until they encounter state trooper Bud Pewtie. He's hot on their trail, but a little distracted. He's also hot on the tail of his young patrol-car partner's wife. Bud's having a damn good time, too, but he's feeling awfully guilty about it. When these dirty white boys ambush this Smokey, an unforgettable, heart-stopping chase gets under way.
