A tight, gritty and wildly imaginative thriller, This Side Of The Dirt heralds the debut of Zach Olsen, a new voice in crime fiction.
The disappearance of a corpse from an unearthed casket rocks a small Texas town on the border of Mexico – but searching for the truth behind it will put down-and-out obituary writer Stan Wakefield on the trail of grave diggers, mexican cartel mercenaries, desperate morticians and crooked cops, leading Stan to take deadly measures to catch a killer about to strike again – burying himself alive, in a cemetery, on Halloween night.
