- (1888PressRelease) June 25, 2014 - Steven Wells Hicks announced today that his latest novel Destiny's Anvil: A Tale of Politics, Payback & Pigs will be listed for free on Amazon from June 24th through June 26th, 2014.
From New Orleans novelist Steven Wells Hicks comes a classic tale of revenge between a sociopathic politician and the campaign puppet master who unleashes him
on the people of Louisiana.
Written from an insider's experiences in the back rooms of hardball Dixie politics where cold-blooded payback
is coin of the realm, Destiny's Anvil is at once a sharp-eyed examination of the seamy underside of America's elections and a freewheeling yarn in the grand Southern tradition.
Synopsis:
Will Guidry's career as a backwater lawyer is going nowhere until he has a couple of beers with up-and-coming political operative Tucker Callahan, whose family's petrochemical fortune instills in him a confidence bordering on hubris. As Tucker explains to his rudderless brother, Carter, "Guidry and I made a deal because he needed a miracle and I wanted to play God."
Guidry rides Tucker's political horse sense into the office of Louisiana's Attorney General, while Tucker capitalizes on Guidry's victory to bolster his own political reputation. But what should become a powerful alliance deteriorates into a bitter feud when Guidry tries to flex his political muscle and Tucker suspects he may have maneuvered a calculating sociopath into the marble halls of power.
Caught in the crossfire is Carter, the story's narrator. Devastated by betrayal at the hands of his brother and the woman he loved for a lifetime, a brooding Carter remains content to watch the power struggle between Tucker and Guidry from the sidelines. Everything changes when he stumbles on the charismatic attorney general committing a monstrous crime, and finds himself drawn into the vortex of his brother's private war.
Racing from a bungled execution through ruthless political payback and a no-holds-barred courtroom showdown, before culminating in a bloodbath by the side of a bayou, the stakes continue to rise and Carter finds his small-town naiveté peeling away. Replacing it is a mounting dread of what will happen when the hammer of Fate meets destiny's anvil.
