The Bones of Wolfe: A Border Noir - Hardcover
by James Carlos Blake (Author)
Two outlaw brothers search for hijackers, stolen goods, and an adult film star in this action-packed noir tale by the author of The Ways of Wolfe.
In the newest Wolfe-family adventure, Rudy and Frank Wolfe are engaging in routine miscellaneous business--some legitimate and some less so--for their family when they stumble upon a stash of high-quality pornographic films in a raid. After their Aunt Catalina, the family matriarch aged 115, recognizes a resemblance to her long-lost sister in one of the young performers, she tasks the boys with tracking the girl down, however improbable a connection may be.
This proves to be no simple task. Soon, Rudy and Frank find themselves moving away from world of porn and towards the upper echelons of the Sinaloa drug cartel, where the mysterious woman has become a particular favorite of the head narco. For their aunt, the woman, and themselves, Frank and Rudy must find a way to extract her from the cartel. A tropical storm threatens their plan but their widespread and steadfast family stands ready to assist them every deadly mile of the way.
Ever daring and innovative, and assisted by the family's ready resources, the Wolfe brothers must run the highest risks in order to achieve the mission assigned them by the Grande Dame.

"In the vein of a Thomas Perry caper novel, with plenty of blood. As such, it is never less than thoroughly entertaining." --Booklist
