Love, lust, passion, and deceit culminate in the ultimate price being paid for revenge. It is a hot, steamy summer and the Blonde is bored with her marriage to Phillip, a successful designer. When she meets the Hollywood actor, Black Lomax, they are instantly attracted to each other. In an old hotel at the edge of the yellow field, she embarks on an affair, unaware that Black’s past is lurking in the background, intent on exacting revenge. This leads to devastating consequences for everyone involved. An unhinged heiress, a suicidal sister, and a relationship which has gone sour, all add to the havoc unleashed.

The cantankerous and contemplative main character, Clem Everett, living out his later years on a rural plot of land in the Wet Mountains of Colorado, finds the chickens of his life coming home to roost as he is faced with the bills piling up, a mounting sense of loneliness, estrangement from society and the way it has moved on, regrets about lost love, and a mounting dread over his increasing inability to connect the dots that no longer seem to be lining up. This novel is a character study of a man every bit as endangered and fragile and beautifully complex as the contemporary American Southwest he inhabits. "The main character, Clem, yields a mental and physical landscape beautifully, which Burg renders to the reader in prose and prose-poetry. The philosophical and practical are combined in a language that is both colloquial and complex. The metaphysical is laid out in simple yet universal language. The attention to detail is superb. Clem the dogs, the horse, neighbors, townspeople and his lost love Rainey form a universe, summed up by the Yellow Field.. The novel is brilliantly written with an ending that is beautifully written . . . gripping, riveting. The ideas of time and space, shadow and light, fate and will, heaven and hell are handled with rare genius. The essence of the book is the sense of wonder, history, landscape, and spirituality that is embedded in Clem. At the same time, there is a sense of Clem as a tragic figure who is constantly flirting with survival." -Tony Moffeit _______________________________________________________________________________ About The Author Peter Edward Burg is a writer of prose, poetry, songs, plays, and is a musician.
