Joe Gores: Cases (USA 1999) From the Publisher: Pierce Duncan, a young man just out of Notre Dame, sets off for the roads and rails of postwar America, driven by Hemingway's belief that "going where you have to go, doing what you have to do, seeing what you have to see" is what makes one a writer. For Pierce, it also leads to strange, fateful meetings: with a redneck guard on a Georgian chain-gang; with a killer on a lonely Texas road; and with a corrupt Los Angeles cult leader. The most influential encounter is with a hard-nosed private eye who changes Pierce's life forever, leading him to San Francisco, where he must decide his ultimate path in the City by the Bay. Joe Gores: Cases. A Novel. Mysterious Press, ISBN: 0892965932 (January, 1999), 354 p., $19.95 (?).
