Resumen del Editor
A "heartbreakingly resonant" thriller about the explosive intersection of love, race, and justice from a writer and producer of the Emmy-winning Fox TV show Empire (USA Today).
"In Bluebird, Bluebird, Attica Locke had both mastered the thriller and exceeded it." (Ann Patchett)
When it comes to law and order, East Texas plays by its own rules - a fact that Darren Mathews, a black Texas Ranger, knows all too well. Deeply ambivalent about growing up black in the lone star state, he was the first in his family to get as far away from Texas as he could. Until duty called him home.
When his allegiance to his roots puts his job in jeopardy, he travels up Highway 59 to the small town of Lark, where two murders - a black lawyer from Chicago and a local white woman - have stirred up a hornet's nest of resentment. Darren must solve the crimes - and save himself in the process - before Lark's long-simmering racial fault lines erupt.
From a writer and producer of the Emmy winning Fox TV show Empire, Bluebird, Bluebird is a rural noir suffused with the unique music, color, and nuance of East Texas.
Reseñas de la Crítica
"Attica Locke knows Texas, a place that has shaped both her characters and her life. Locke's new book, Bluebird, Bluebird, is evidence of her deep knowledge and love of her community and a deep talent for writing hype thrillers that also manage to be timely, relevant, and keenly insightful." (Joe Ide, author of IQ and Righteous)
"With Bluebird, Bluebird, Attica Locke brings freshness and vitality to a beloved form. Her storytelling touch is just so strong! From the first beautifully done scene until the finale, this is a very propulsive novel concerning old deeds that keep influencing the present, injustice, and courage - a powerful and dramatic look at contemporary black life in rural America." (Daniel Woodrell, author of The Maid's Version)
"Locke's writing is both sharp-edged and lyrical. This is thoughtful, piercing storytelling with the power to transport." (Diana Evans, Financial Times)

Joe Pickett is the new game warden in Twelve Sleep, Wyoming, a town where nearly everyone hunts and the game warden—especially one like Joe who won't take bribes or look the other way—is far from popular. When he finds a local hunting outfitter dead, splayed out on the woodpile behind his state-owned home, he takes it personally. There had to be a reason that the outfitter, with whom he's had run-ins before, chose his backyard, his woodpile to die in.

Most are set in his beloved Louisiana, many hard by or on the Mississippi River, others in North Carolina, and even in midwinter Minnesota. But generally it's heat, humidity, and bugs that beset his people as they wrestle with affairs of the heart, matters of faith, and the pros and cons of tight-knit communities.

The estate's owners have turned the place into an eerie tourist attraction, complete with full-dress re-enactments and carefully restored slave quarters. Outside the gates, a corporation with ambitious plans has been busy snapping up land from struggling families who have been growing sugar cane for generations, and now replacing local employees with illegal laborers. Tensions mount when the body of a female migrant worker is found in a shallow grave on the edge of the property.

Dallas, Texas is not for the faint of heart. Good thing for Betty Rhyzyk she's from a family of take-no-prisoners Brooklyn police detectives. But her Big Apple wisdom will only get her so far when she relocates to The Big D, where Mexican drug cartels and cult leaders, deadbeat skells and society wives all battle for sunbaked turf. Battling a group of unruly subordinates, a persistent stalker, a formidable criminal organization, and an unsupportive girlfriend, the unbreakable Detective Betty Rhyzyk may be reaching her limit.

Henry Park has spent his entire life trying to become a true American—a native speaker. But even as the essence of his adopted country continues to elude him, his Korean heritage seems to drift further and further away. Park's harsh Korean upbringing has taught him to hide his emotions, to remember everything he learns, and most of all to feel an overwhelming sense of alienation. In other words, it has shaped him as a natural spy.

Erika Krouse has one of those faces. “I don’t know why I’m telling you this,” people say, spilling confessions. In fall 2002, Erika accepts a new contract job investigating lawsuits as a private investigator. The role seems perfect for her, but she quickly realizes she has no idea what she’s doing. Then a lawyer named Grayson assigns her to investigate a sexual assault, a college student who was attacked by football players and recruits at a party a year earlier. Erika knows she should turn the assignment down.

Bluebird, Bluebird
Loved the story but the ending was a puzzle. It left me looking for more. The narrator JD Jackson kept the story alive. Very good narrator and a good book.

To the narrator
The grocery stores’ name is pronounced “brook-shure” not “brook-shire” here in East Texas.

A taste of East Texas
This captures the flavor of the East Texas piney woods. Backwards and bigoted. Good story, well narrated. Maintains a good pace and holds the reader's interest.

Nice Texas Mystery
It’s funny how I take US 59/69 to head to North Louisiana and pass through East Texas. This story was great. I just wish the narrator would have pronounced the Brookshire Brothers store the way we do (Brook-sures). The story had plenty of depth and the characters were quite interesting.

Wish I’d read instead of listening
This was a pretty compelling mystery, but there was something missing...somehow the characters lacked depth for me. Maybe it was the fact that I didn’t enjoy the voice. sometimes the narrator can influence my opinion, and I didn’t enjoy his voice.

Fantastic narrator
I love some of Attica Locke’s other books. This one dragged a bit & the side stories were long... suspense not there. That said I liked the characters and there were moments of fascinating insight her writing. But the narrator....perfect. Excellent voice , & I appreciate that he didn’t try to alter it significantly for female/other characters

LOVED EVERYTHING
Firstly, shoutout to Attica Locke for writing such a poignant, provocative narrative. The pace was steady and the settings were beautifully displayed and imagined. I kinda felt that one or two characters could have been developed more, but it didn't hurt the overall story.

Amazing! It could not stop listening to the book!
This is one of the few books that have kept me interested in the last few months. I haven't found anything intriguing or really exciting at Audible. However, this book was my treat for the new year. Wow! I love the reader and the storyline. The story about race, politics, and family sounds so familiar in the current political climate. It was a great lesson, and this is to say a lot, as I have a political science and a law degree. Fabulous!

I just could not connect or care about the main character
I made myself finish it but I just could not care about the main character. The performance was good, though.
