Brian Panowich burst onto the crime fiction scene in 2015 winning awards and accolades from readers and critics alike for his smoldering debut Bull Mountain. Now with Like Lions he cements his place as one of the outstanding new voices in crime fiction. Clayton Burroughs is a small-town Georgia sheriff a new father and improbably the heir apparent of Bull Mountain's most notorious criminal family. As he tries to juggle fatherhood his job and his recovery from being shot in the confrontation that killed his two criminally-inclined brothers last year he's doing all he can just to survive. Yet after years of carefully toeing the line between his life in law enforcement and his family he finally has to make a choice. When a rival organization makes a first foray into Burroughs territory leaving a trail of bodies and a whiff of fear in its wake Clayton is pulled back into the life he so desperately wants to leave behind. Revenge is a powerful force and the vacuum left by his brothers' deaths has left them all vulnerable. With his wife and child in danger and the way of life in Bull Mountain under siege for everyone Clayton will need to find a way to bury the bloody legacy of his past once and for all. --Source: Publisher ; Brian Panowich is an award winning author a Georgia firefighter and a father to four incredible children.

Ann Patchett and Lucy Grealy met in college in 1981 and after enrolling in the Iowa Writers' Workshop began a friendship that would be as defining to both of their lives as their work was. In her critically acclaimed and hugely successful memoir Autobiography of a Face Lucy Grealy wrote about losing part of her jaw to childhood cancer the years of chemotherapy and radiation and then the endless reconstructive surgeries. In Truth & Beauty the story isn't Lucy's life or Ann's life but the parts of their lives they shared. This is a portrait of unwavering commitment that spans twenty years from the long cold winters of the Midwest to surgical wards to book parties in New York. Through love fame drugs and despair this book shows us what it means to be part of two lives that are intertwined. This is a tender brutal book about loving a person we cannot save. It is about loyalty and about being lifted up by the sheer effervescence of someone who knew how to live life to the fullest. Truth & Beauty: A Friendship is a memoir by Ann Patchett. First published in 2004 by Harper Perennial the memoir focuses on Patchett's 18 year friendship with memoirist Lucy Grealy which began when they were 21. The book was published just 18 months after Grealy's death. ; FINE HarperCollins, New York, NY, ©2004, Reissue 2023 paperback
