Born for trouble : the further adventures of Hap and Leonard : stories  Cover Image Book Book

Born for trouble : the further adventures of Hap and Leonard : stories / Joe R. Lansdale, Edgar Award-winning author of Moon Lake.

Summary:

"When you meet him, Hap Collins seems just like a good ol’ boy. But even in his misspent youth, his best pal was Leonard Pine: black, gay, and the ultimate outsider. Together, they have mostly found their way as partners in crime-solving—and at least as often, as hired muscle. As Hap wrestles with his new identity as a father, and Leonard finds love in a long-term relationship, the boys continue their crime-solving shenanigans. They uncover the sordid secret of a missing bookmobile, compete in a warped version of the Most Dangerous Game, regroup after Hap’s visit to the psychologist goes terribly awry, and much more."--publisher's website.
