Overview

Meet Moses Kincaid, a Native American bounty hunter who served in the US Army in Desert Storm and Haiti. Now, to pay the bills, he's taken to tracking down wanted criminals in and around Kansas City. Unaware he has no authority after chasing a man-on-the-run across state lines, Moses scours the Oklahoma map for a guy who ran down two members of the Filthy 13 motorcycle gang and didn't look back. With news of the Oklahoma City bombing still unfolding on the nightly news, locals don't kindly look upon new faces. As the Anadarko County Sheriff's Department, town riffraff, and blood relatives of the bounty prove to be a series of dead ends, a waitress offers Moses a helping hand-and a chance at something more. Though love comes and goes quickly as this manhunt comes to a head. After a slip that costs another man his life, Moses finds himself on the wrong side of the gavel. His only choice is to go undercover at Big Mac, looking for the source of a drug flooding this notorious state prison that turns its violent criminals into rodeo clowns-if he doesn't wind up sharing their fate.

“David Tromblay has a gift for short, sweet, snappy Native pulp fictions stories that aren’t full of crap stereotypes, that are entertaining without being ethnographic time sucks.” —Theodore Van Alst Jr., Ph.D., co-editor of Never Whistle at Night ""David Tromblay has created a violent and wistful elegy to small-town America that cuts as sharp as an ice pick and goes twice as deep."" —S.A. Cosby, author of King of Ashes ""COYDOG is fun and kickass but also layered with deeply troubling and complicated questions that linger with you long after reading it."" —BULL Magazine   ""A natural storyteller with an ear tuned for dialogue and an imagination that will keep readers wide-eyed and guessing, slack-jawed, and entertained. A manhunt shouldn't be this fun."" — David Joy, author of Those We Thought We Knew   ""This is one wild ride. You think it'll go left, and it goes right. You think it'll go up, and it goes sideways. David Tromblay is a force, and so is his madman hero, Moses Kincaid."" — Willy Vlautin, author of The Horse   ""Quick-witted, fast-paced, unpredictable. COYDOG is a raucous, wide-open, crime-riddled joy ride."" — Michael Farris Smith, author of Salvage This World “A rough and tumble journey through a landscape as colorful as its inhabitants.” — Steph Post, author of Lightwood ""COYDOG is paced like a small-town stock car race without any rules. And funny as hell to boot."" — Scott Phillips, author of The Ice Harvest ""One of the most original voices in crime fiction – wild, wicked, and always surprising. COYDOG is a barnburner of a novel, a rush of unforgettable characters, rich detail, and unsparing truth."" - Lou Berney, author of Dark Ride   “COYDOG pulsates with intensity. It’s scrappy, sharp-edged, wild, and funny. One hell of a memorable ride.” - William Boyle, author of Saint of the Narrows Street   ""With a voice and style all his own, Moses Kincaid leads the reader, by the scruff of the shirt, through his rough and tumble ride from bounty hunting into the Dantean prison system. He doesn't meet a lot of nice people along the way, but it sure is entertaining to watch fall off the page."" — Paul Tremblay, author of Horror Movie   ""A welcome addition to the burgeoning crime literature of Oklahoma. Moses Kincaid is the toughest guy in Tulsa."" — Chris Offutt, author of The Killing Hills
