@RoLarenRED57 oh my god do you mean #thedetective by #matthewreilly is real? And there is a Bubba. They were hunting black people!

Just finished reading #thedetective by #matthewreilly. Never read any book by him before but it read well. I think I will check out a few more.

An interesting look at the #Texas/#Tennessee/#louisiana world of oil refinery, wealth, poverty and racism. I’m not sure why any black person hasn’t migrated completely away from these states but they should.

I know the fundamental story is fiction but the attitudes/culture and economy is very real.
