Overview
He was hung bigger than a forearm, but they still took him all the way.
1987. A different America.
Since 1952, the Bureau of Hereditary Affairs has registered, tattooed, and contained the Carriers: men of a bloodline that crawled out of the Appalachian coal seams, built on a scale that breaks the mind. The public is told they're a health hazard. Behind the wire of a compound north of Tonopah, Nevada, the Bureau has found a better use for them.
Women go into the white rooms. They come out changed. Calm. Devoted. Asking, every night at two in the morning, for a man by his number.
Sadie Marlowe is a chain-smoking, foul-mouthed reporter for a dying Baltimore weekly, and three years ago her brilliant older sister walked into that compound and came home empty. Sadie has spent four months and her last credit card hunting the man responsible. She's found him at a rest stop off I-68, in the rain.
Cole Ashby, Unit 9, escaped Nevada with a pocketknife and a vow never to touch a woman again. He is the most valuable instrument the Bureau ever built, and they want him back.
She wants a source. He wants to be left alone. She sets rules. Every one of them is a line she swears she'll never cross.
From a motel in West Virginia to a rowhouse in Dundalk, from a dead drive-in in the fog to the burning heart of the Nevada desert, Bloodline is a dark, explicit, unflinching novel about devotion, ownership, and the terrible relief of letting go.
This is not a love story. It's something hungrier.
