Reavis Z. Wortham Announces New Release

Burrows: Book Two in the Red River Mystery Series Author Reavis Z. Wortham is pleased to announce the release of his new mystery novel, Burrows.

Lyndon B. Johnson is President in 1965, Beatlemania is in overdrive and gasoline costs 30 cents a gallon when Ned Parker retires as constable in Center Springs, Texas. But his plan to live a quiet life as a cotton farmer will soon change. A phone call leads Ned to a body in the Red River and the discovery rips him out of retirement to help his nephew, the newly elected constable Cody Parker. Together they work to head off a multi-state killing spree that sets northeast Texas on fire.

Burrows: Book Two in the Red River Mystery Series was released on July 7, 2012 by Poisoned Pen Press. It is available on Amazon.com, Barnes & Noble and Booksamillion.

“Wortham combines the gonzo sensibility of Joe R. Lansdale and the elegiac mood of To Kill a Mockingbird to strike just the right balance between childhood innocence and adult horror.” – Starred Review — Publishers Weekly
