"When a young black man is lynched in a small Alabama town, his estranged father - a crime world enforcer - sets out for revenge, embarking on a blood-soaked journey that will leave the ravaged bodies of dead Klansmen in his wake. ""Rausch unleashes a flurry of gut-punches both painful and thrilling; his prose brimming with righteous anger and stark, no-bullshit wit. This racially charged and crackling tale reads like a startling mash-up of Jim Thompson and Iceberg Slim, making Bloody Sheets that rare hardboiled and hard-hitting, but transcendently heartfelt as well."" (Wesley Strick, screenwriter of Cape Fear) "
