The Fallen: A Quinn Colson Novel Series, Book 7
(Adobe EPUB eBook, Kindle Book, OverDrive Read)
The bank robbers wreaking havoc across the South are carrying out their heists with such skill and precision that they remind Tibbehah County Sheriff Quinn Colson of the raids he once led as an Army Ranger. In fact, their techniques are so like the ones in the Ranger Handbook that he can’t help wondering if the outlaws are former Rangers themselves.
And that’s definitely going to be a problem. If Colson stands any chance of catching them, he’s going to need the help of old allies, new enemies, and a lot of luck. The enemies, he has plenty of. It’s the allies and the luck that are in woefully short supply...

Starred review from May 22, 2017
One of President Trump’s most notorious off-color remarks appears in the first chapter of Edgar-finalist Atkins’s outstanding seventh crime novel featuring Army Ranger turned lawman Quinn Colson (after 2016’s The Innocents). Robber Rick Wilcox fires a gun in the air and threatens to grab women’s privates when he and the other members of his gang walk into a small-town bank wearing Trump masks. Quinn, who has recently been returned to the position of sheriff of Mississippi’s Tibbehah County, gets the news of the Trump bandits’ latest strike after a visit to Vienna’s Place, “a low-rent highway titty bar,” where the proprietress, Fannie Hatchcock, assaulted an overzealous customer with a hammer. The robberies reunite Quinn with Jon Holliday, a fed he first encountered when Holliday was infiltrating the corrupt political organization headed by local power broker Johnny Stagg. Atkins tosses in a missing persons case—Quinn’s sister Caddy, who runs an outreach program for abused women, asks him to look for two teenage girls—but the multiple plotlines don’t make the story too busy. As in recent books, Atkins lightens the mood with some humor, presenting a warts-and-all portrayal of a Southern community. Author tour. Agent: Esther Newberg, ICM.

Reluctantly back in the saddle as the sheriff of Tibbehah County, Mississippi, Quinn Colson goes up against a trio of bank robbers as cunning as they are clueless.Rick Wilcox, Jonas Cord (who's borrowed his name from that of a notorious Harold Robbins hero), and their buddy Opie have robbery down to a science. They know exactly the best time to move on even modest institutions like the Jericho First National Bank, and they perform each job with military precision. While Cord waits in a disposable stolen truck, the other two enter each target armed with a stopwatch, a pair of assault rifles, two Donald Trump masks, and an unforgettable tagline: "Anyone moves and I'll grab 'em by the pussy." No one generally moves, and the former Marines and their junior partner drive off, ditch their ride and set it afire, and then take off to plot their next caper. Now that they've fouled his nest, Quinn would love to catch them, but he and his deputies have their hands full with the disappearance of teenagers Tamika Odum and Ana Maria Mata, county supervisor Skinner's endless complaints against Vienna's Place, the strip club Fannie Hathcock runs just outside the city limits, and the trashing of Maggie Powers' house by somebody, presumably her estranged husband, who didn't even bother to steal anything. This last crime would barely register on Quinn's radar if Maggie weren't a well-nigh forgotten friend he spent summers playing with as a child, an old acquaintance with whom his friendship might well blossom into something else. In between shared meals of catfish and whiskey, though, Quinn keeps being drawn back to Vienna's Place--and so, it turns out, do the robbers he's pursuing. Beneath the down-home Southern trappings, fans will find Atkins' customary mixture of political corruption, true-blue policing, intimate betrayals, and wholesale violence. The satisfyingly inconclusive ending of this sequel to the equally dark The Innocents (2016) puts a whole new spin on catharsis.COPYRIGHT(2017) Kirkus Reviews, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

Atkins has had his hands full lately, jumping between novels starring Robert B. Parker's Spenser and his own, Edgar-nominated Quinn Colson series. It's back to Colson here for another well-constructed, character-rich story featuring the Tibbehah County, Mississippi, sheriff. This time, three superefficient bank robbers are working their way from bank to bank around the county (shades of the film Hell or High Water). Former Army Ranger Colson finds a Ranger-like precision in the way the robbers work and wonders if they may once have been Rangers, too. Meanwhile, the sheriff is tracking a couple of vanished teens, engaging in skirmishes with a Bible-thumping but thoroughly corrupt councilman, and falling into a new relationship. What makes this series so entertaining is its mix of country noir and comedy, combined with Atkins' ability to give us full-bodied characters on both sides of the law, whether bank robbers, stylish brothel owners, or aggrieved deputies. When all these down-home folks get to talkin', their words pack a wallophumorous, yes, but with plenty of real pathos lurking behind the wisecracks.(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 2017, American Library Association.)

A former army ranger in Iraq and Afghanistan, County Sheriff Quinn Colson suspects that the robbers conducting precision raids on banks in and around his Mississippi base are themselves former rangers. Seventh in an Edgar-nominated series that sells better with every entry; with a national tour.
