Highway 126

Wagons of Sin Publishing, 2024

In the last untouched agricultural valley in Southern California, far beyond the outskirts of Los Angeles, citrus groves line the lonely highway. In the small towns along Highway 126, some people are the haves and some are the have-nots, but everyone has their secrets...some secrets more terrible than anyone ever imagined. Highway 126 is a brutal and fast-paced supernatural crime thriller. Highway 126. Sheriff Joe Ganley patrols this long and lonely stretch of road. He thinks of it as his highway. He's a pillar of the community, a family man, a weight-lifting sadist, a duplicitous drug dealer, a man badly addicted to pharmaceutical-grade cocaine. He has connections. One of them is local loser and cold-blooded killer Luis "Sapo" Huerta. Working in unison, Huerta and Ganley are small-time kingpins pouring their product straight into the insatiable drug-hunger of Los Angeles. After committing a high-profile murder, Huerta needs money and needs it fast. Who better to squeeze than his number-one dealer, the retired soap opera actor and former "Cocaine King of Hollywood" Billy Dolan? Armed to the teeth, Huerta and Ganley descend upon the Dolan orange grove--a place where generations have drawn fruit from the loamy soil, and where evil and corruption took root long ago. Highway 126: Something terrible happened here, once upon a time... And it's about to happen again. In Highway 126 Eddie Mulnix has created a brutal and uncompromising thriller that blurs the lines between crime fiction, pulp noir, and horror. "The Thompson-esque Highway 126, a tale of the south side of the law filled with random violence and dope, is capped by an even more violent surprise ending...it's a damned good read, that's for sure. This copy has been in the bathroom, on the nightstand, and a welcome distraction from TV in the living room. Mulnix also wrote the amazingly perverse criminal romp Cleft , and if you haven't caught that one yet, catch it now." -Paniscus Revue
