Earl SwaggerSéries

Cette série policière sombre suit un héros de guerre rappelé dans la violente pègre de son Arkansas natal après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Chargé de nettoyer une ville corrompue de jeux d'argent, il navigue dans un paysage traître de gangsters, d'hommes politiques véreux et de secrets profondément enfouis. Avec un fort sens de la justice et une volonté d'user de la force, il affronte les ténèbres qui menacent de consumer sa communauté. Les récits explorent les thèmes de la rédemption, de la loyauté et de la lutte brutale pour l'ordre dans une frontière sans loi.

    The summer of 1946. Haunted by memories of his experiences in the blood-soaked Pacific War and of his abusive father, ex-marine Earl Swagger believes himself almost beyond redemption: an angry man with nowhere to go in the post-war peace. But there is a new war, within America's heartland: the war against organised crime. Recruited by the District Attorney in HOT SPRINGS, Arkansas to take on the Mob head to head, Earl and his team of rookie cops find they have to do battle not only with heavily armed mobsters but also with politicians. No one anywhere is to be trusted.
