Crime Reads has an excerpt from Joe R. Lansdale’s new Hap & Leonard novel, The Elephant of Surprise. “Me and Leonard had finished up a surveillance job in San Augustine and were on our way back to LaBorde. When we’d left, the sky was clear and you could see the stars and the partial moon, but that situation had changed five miles out of town. First came the wind, then thunder and lightning, finally the rain, and then the wind picked up even more, and it began to seriously storm.”
