REVIEW: Pineville Trace by Wes Blake

 


Frank Russet, is a former southern revival preacher and confidence man who escapes from a minimum-security prison in eastern Kentucky. With only a cat named Buffalo by his side and a desire to leave his past behind, Frank embarks on a journey to or on the fringes of society. Pineville Trace is a flash-fiction novella or a  novella-in-flash by Wes Blake follows Frank as he navigates a shadowy world, encounters remnants of his former life that forces  him to confront his deepest regrets and desires. The prose is not only haunting but introspective and atmospheric at the same time. It vividly captures Frank's struggle for survival and his quest for redemption in short snippets, inviting readers to explore the fine line between salvation and damnation.

Thank you to #NetGalley, the author Wes Blake and Mindbuck Media Audio for an audio copy of #PinevilleTrace in exchange for my honest opinion. This novella actually comes out tomorrow September 3, 2024, so be on the lookout!!
