The Jealous Kind by James Lee Burke

This gorgeous novel doubles as a delectable thriller and vibrant throwback to 1952 life in Houston — but trust us, it isn’t all jukeboxes and drive-in diners. An epic romance unfolds in the middle of a class war involving the most affluent families in Texas, the mob and the struggling middle class. This novel by New York Times-bestselling author James Lee Burke is a thrilling ode to just how far we go for true love and what we’ll sacrifice — life included — in order to protect it.
