It happens every year; it's been happening forever; it's the way it's always been. But this time it's different.\n\nTen years after that fateful hunt, these men are being stalked themselves. Soaked with a powerful gothic atmosphere, the endless expanses of the landscape press down on these men - and their children - as the ferocious spirit comes for them one at a time.\n\nThe Only Good Indians, charts Nature's revenge on a lost generation that maybe never had a chance. Cleaved to their heritage, these parents, husbands, sons and Indians, men live on the fringes of a society that has rejected them, refusing to challenge their exile to limbo.","brand":"Stephen Graham Jones","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42702006485170,"sku":"9781789095296","price":305.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/9191\/8002\/products\/317153_61180f3bed1906.47290473_9781789095296.jpg?v=1671713529"},{"product_id":"mexican-gothic-paperback","title":"Mexican Gothic (Paperback)","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThe award-winning author of \u003ci\u003eGods of Jade and Shadow\u003c\/i\u003e (one of the 100 best fantasy novels of all time, TIME magazine) returns with a mesmerising feminist Gothic fantasy, in which a\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e glamorous\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e young socialite discovers the haunting secrets of a beautiful old mansion in 1950s Mexico.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eHe is trying to poison me.
