Born in the charming town of Corbin, Kentucky in 1984, Harlinn Draper was instilled with a love for storytelling from an early age. His mother, an English teacher, gifted him the power of evocative language and captivating plots, while his father, a railroader, passed on a strength and grit that would shape Harlinn's writing style. Check out his breakthrough debut novella "Roughneck".
In hills of Southeast Kentucky, where the weight of injustice presses hard, Floyd Jennings emerges as an unlikely hero. Known as a "roughneck," Floyd is a tough, resilient young man, shaped by the struggles of everyday life under a system designed to keep his community down.
Caught in a series of unintended consequences, Floyd's journey takes him from the gritty backroads to the heart of an oppressive regime. As he battles corrupt officials and the law that binds them, he discovers a path to enlightenment he never imagined possible.
Fueled by a fierce determination and the spirit of his people, Floyd rattles the cages of power and breaks the chains that hold them captive. In a tale as bizarre as it is thrilling, "Roughneck" weaves a story of defiance, transformation, and the unyielding quest for justice.
