No Country for Old Men

Cormac McCarthy

Drug-runners and small towns turned free-fire zones set the scene for Cormac McCarthy's latest novel. Llewellyn Moss discovers a pickup truck surrounded by dead bodies, its back loaded with two million dollars in cash and heroin. When he takes the money, he sets off a chain of catastrophic violence that not even aging Sheriff Bell can contain. As Moss tries to evade his pursuers, McCarthy explores themes as old as the Bible and as current as this morning's headlines. A triumph in stripping down and broadening the American crime novel.
