FOUR CORNERS

Four Corners is a bare-knuckled debut novel in the style of Daniel Woodrell, Barry Hannah, and Charles Bowden —a savage, mean-streets thriller and a heartbreaking story of unfortunate love, carved from the barren, distinct landscapes of the American Southwest.

For the better part of 37 years, Frank Bruce has hobbled through his life, dragging his hunger for amphetamines, alcohol, and crime behind him like a heap of tarnished weight. Now, emboldened by the love of his child-fiancé Maddie, Frank goes on the run through the drug underworld of the Southwest trying to save a young boy from his meth-riddled father and casino mogul grandfather. Determined to protect what he loves, Frank seeks out his onetime mentor, drug kingpin Jon Santer, and in doing so, triggers a vile reckoning with Shenk, his henchmen, and his terrible, corrupt legacy. ?

Born in Canada to Jamaican immigrant parents, Wally Rudolph smoked marijuana for the first time at age 14. The joint, rolled from pages from the Book of Revelations of a pocket-sized bible, was the start of a, 15-year affair with illicit drugs that had him drop out of college and took him back and forth across the American Midwest. His fiction has been published in Milk Money, Lines+Stars, The Brooklyner, and others. A graduate of The Second City Conservatory in Chicago, he now lives in LA where he acts –he’s appeared in numerous films and TV shows including Street Kings, Bang Bang, and Sons of Anarchy.
