    This story is not a new one. Our unfortunate protagonist stumbles across something he shouldn't, makes a few bad decisions, and finds himself on the run with some very bad guys after him. The thing that sets this one apart is McCarthy's willingness to follow the story to it's logical conclusion without being afraid to kill off a likable character or the need to wrap everything up in a happy ending. I find Cormac McCarthy books very fast reads for me because I get hooked by the story and this book was no exception.
