IIRC, Mr. Hunter's books have been mentioned by rara-avians.
I've meaning to read one of his titles and picked up BLACK
LIGHT. The action and pace made for an awesome read. But the
author also uses the almost 400 pages to full effect with
multiple viewpoints, character development, atmospheric
setting
(Ozark style), and a visceral prose style. If there was any
bloat or padding, then I missed it. I'll look for his other
titles in the "Earl Swagger trilogy." (ES was a
protagonist.)
