    I certainly didn't mean for it to...I vaguely remembered a book/author thread but couldn't fucking find it....anywho, here's hoping that we'll get the threads merged and everyone will give their input and keep that thread at the top of this part of the forum.

    In 1897, an aspiring politician is mysteriously murdered in the rural area of Alabama known as Mitcham Beat. His outraged friends -- —mostly poor cotton farmers -- form a secret society, Hell-at-the-Breech, to punish the townspeople they believe responsible. The hooded members wage a bloody year-long campaign of terror that culminates in a massacre where the innocent suffer alongside the guilty. Caught in the maelstrom of the Mitcham war are four people: the aging sheriff sympathetic to both sides; the widowed midwife who delivered nearly every member of Hell-at-the-Breech; a ruthless detective who wages his own war against the gang; and a young store clerk who harbors a terrible secret.

    Based on incidents that occurred a few miles from the author's childhood home, Hell at the Breech chronicles the events of dark days that led the people involved to discover their capacity for good, evil, or for both.
    I'm currently reading this at the moment, I only started it the other day and whilst its good I'm struggling to get into it, I like the writing style but I'm just waiting for it to kick off a little bit and get going.

    I read one of Tom Franklins other books (Smonk) and that was just a crazy clusterfuck of violence and crazy characters that wasn't very good, that was why I thought I'd give this book a go because he seems like he could be a real good author, I'll let you all know what I think of it in the end

    Wow, looks like you stumbled on a bit of American history that I didn't even know about. I may have to take a look at that one myself.
