In Lonesome Family pets, Russell Strawl, a tormented past lawman, is called out of retirement to hunt a serial killer with a sense of the macabre that has been going out of elaborately carved bodies of Native Americans across three counties. As the quest ensues, Strawl's own dark and violent background weaves itself into the hunt, losing light on the remains of his cracked family: one wife used by the river, one by his own side; an adopted Local American child who fancies himself a Catholic prophet; and a little girl, whose temerity and stoicism compare against the passionate notions of the way the west was triumphed in. Inside the vein of True Grit and Blood vessels Meridian, Lonesome Family pets is a Western novel reinvented, a detective story inverted for the Western world. It contemplates the nature of story and heroism in the face of a collapsing ethos not only of Local American culture, but also of the first wave of white men who, through the battle against the geography and its indigenous people, guaranteed their own devastation. Nonetheless it is also about one man's urgent, elegiac seek out justice amidst the craven serves dedicated on the ends of civilization.
