Review
Fast-paced, raunchy and fun, Bad Chili is the fourth book by Joe R Lansdale to feature the incorrigible East Texan duo of modern crime fiction, Hap Collins and Leonard Pine. The trouble, and there's always a ton of it, begins when Hap rolls back into town only to be attacked by a rabid squirrel--and everything goes downhill from there. Leonard's ex-lover, Raul, is murdered and when the bigoted police squad shows no sign of bringing the murderer to justice, Leonard decides to take matters into his own hands--Ain't no one gonna do much about this shit. Couple queers aced is almost good business far as the chief's concerned...They don't make it their business, then I got to make it my business. Easier said than done, for each stone that Hap and Leonard overturn in their pursuit of Raul's murderer reveals a confusing array of illegal dealings, thugs and mysterious videotapes. But the duo's irreverent humour and witty repartee never falters and it is this hilarious dialogue, combined with fast-action adventure, that is winning Lansdale fans the world over. --Shannon Bingham
