It has been a long time since I read the book.

Perhaps I am wrong.

I recall Bob Lee Swagger’s father, Earl, had a secret of sex with young boys in a bordello in Hot Springs.

I am open to correction.

That was Earl’s daddy Charles. It was a plot device to make him vulnerable to blackmail in “Hot Springs”.

“”father, Earl, had a secret of sex with young boys in a bordello in Hot Springs.””

I guess it wasn’t a secret then, was it?

Don’t know how it fits into Hunter’s books!
