A review by martyfried
Rumble Tumble by Joe R. Lansdale
4.0
I think this series might be better as an audiobook; they are well done, and the southern accent of the narrator really makes it funnier (although I haven't actually compared to print).
As usual, the story is not the best part to me, although it's usually interesting. But the characters and the dialog is what keeps me reading these books.
In this story, Hap's current romantic interest has a daughter who is a prostitute, but in over her head so her mother decides to bring her home. Unfortunately, even if her daughter agrees, the people holding on to her won't. So Hap decides to help. Shouldn't be too hard, right? Unless they get killed, which looks likely at times. Fortunately, Leonard offers to help, and he's a good person to have around if you need help in a situation like this and don't mind someone who likes to stir up trouble.
