Description

Mucho Mojo  is the basis for the second season of the new Sundance TV series Hap and Leonard

Hap and Leonard return in this incredible, mad-dash thriller, loaded with crack addicts, a serial killer, and a body count.

Leonard is still nursing the injuries he sustained in the duo's last wild undertaking when he learns that his Uncle Chester has passed. Hap is of course going to be there for his best friend, and when the two are cleaning up Uncle Chester's dilapidated house, they uncover a dark little secret beneath the house's rotting floor boards—a small skeleton buried in a trunk. Hap wants to call the police. Leonard, being a black man in east Texas, persuades him this is not a good idea, and together they set out to clear Chester's name on their own. The only things standing in their way is a houseful of felons, a vicious killer, and possibly themselves.

    This is the first book I came across with the name JOE R. LANSDALE on it at a bookstore locally, it was a paperback and it had a great cover(which in my opinion draws a reader in right away) and I read the back and the first couple paragraphs, man I was hooked! I needed something to take my mind of so many things going on in my life at the time and I will never forget this book, it had these two characters that were at first so opposite yet so much like crazy brothers I couldn't put it down. This writer from east Texas can draw you in tight with such laugh out loud sentences and make you cringe with dread with all this violence and mahem, I have loved this author to this day and buy everything he puts out, he is treasure box of delights.Joe always seems to have something to set inbetween the lines about the good and bad in life. If you like crime, suspense, mystery to horror to historic to young adult ,Joe R. Lansdale jjust delivers every time, people are slowy catching up with the talents of this guy but Joe just won't sell out he creeps up on the reader and satisfies with the most outrageious stories, a hell of a writer, glad to have found him!
