Bad Chili is a 1997 crime mystery novel by American author Joe R. Lansdale. It is the fourth in the series of books featuring Lansdale's longtime protagonists Hap and Leonard. The two characters couldn't be more different; Hap is a white working class laborer who went to prison to protest the Vietnam War, and Leonard is a gay, black, Vietnam vet with serious anger issues. Both are experts in the martial arts and are the best of friends.[1]
