Hack Holland is a product of the South, both old and new. Hard-drinking ex-POW and wealthy, progressive Democrat, he stands in the long shadow cast by his ancestors. When Holland's candidacy for a congressional seat brings him increasingly into conflict with those around him, his almost unwitting involvement with a violent civil rights conflict forces him to reassess his future - and his pastPublished throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s; represents Burke's early work before the creation of his now famous Cajun detective, Dave Robicheaux.
