Harbor lights [large print] : stories / James Lee Burke.
"A boy and his father watch a German submarine sink an oil tanker as evil forces try to ruin their family. A girl is beaten up outside a bar as her father navigates new love and threats from a group of neo-Nazis. A pair of undercover union organizers are hired to break colts for a Hollywood actor, whose 'Western hero' facade hides darkness. An oil rig workers witnesses an attack on a local village while on a job in South America and seeks justice through one final act of bravery. With his nuanced characters, lyrical prose, and ability to write shocking violence in the most evocative settings, James Lee Burke's singular skills are on display in this superb anthology."-- Back cover.
