Blackburn

This is the story of a killer named Jimmy Blackburn. Raised in a broken, blue-collar family in rural Kansas, he's a decent man who never exactly meant to hurt anyone - not that a jury would find him innocent. Drifting from town to town, he confronts the same hypocrisies and frustrations s the rest of us but, unable to help himself, or at the mercy of circumstance, he crosses a dangerous threshold - and he kills. In these pages we meet his twenty-one victims - cops, writers, adulterers, auto mechanics, and other liars - and each crime reveals another side of his psyche . . . and his disturbing rationale for murder.
