Set along the US-Mexcio border of the 1940s, Cormac McCarthy's legendary Border Trilogy continues with The Crossing, a coming-of-age western set parallel to the events of All the Pretty Horses.

'McCarthy speaks to us in the thrilling, apocalyptic tones of an Old Testament prophet' – Sunday Telegraph

Sixteen-year-old Billy Parham and his younger brother Boyd are fascinated by an elusive wolf that has been marauding his family's property. Billy captures the animal but, rather than kill it, sets out impulsively for the mountains of Mexico to return it to from where it came.

On his return, he will find himself – and his world – irrevocably changed. His innocence lost at a cruel price, the desolate beauty of the border will beckon once again . . .
