Trackers Pb

'First-rate storytelling' Wall Street Journal

'A novel of suspense with an all-American sting' Washington Post

'Beautiful, burly sentences full of arid geography and heavy weather' Nick Duerden, Observer

'Charles Frazier's historical fiction has explored the canyon-like gap between American mythology and the harsh reality of American life. His latest book, The Trackers, an engaging tale of love, loss and violence during the Great Depression, couldn't arrive at a more appropriate time... A barrelling period piece, The Trackers has plenty of contemporary resonance in its depiction of conflict...

Frazier has produced an entertaining mystery of drifters and grifters, chancers and chisellers. But, more importantly, he has caught the desperation of the times' Christian House, Financial Times

'A densely layered portrait of a country imbued with the pioneering spirit despite being riddled with poverty. Workmanlike in the very best sense.' Max Davidson, Mail on Sunday

Praise for Cold Mountain:

'A beautiful book, written in exquisite prose' Kate Atkinson

'Magnificent' Observer

'A remarkable first novel, a romance of love, of friendship, of family, of land. Frazier has inhaled the spirit of the age and breathes it into the reader's being.'The Times
