Saw the generally positive comments on this crime family saga by this unheard of author and decided to check it out (2016 Thriller Award Winner for Best First Novel.) About quarter way through, it began to resemble the venerable TV series "Justified" based on Elmore Leonard's "Fire in the Hole," except location is the mountain in Georgia instead of Kentucky. Not just a page turner but a hard to put down southern noir, a serious love story and a vendetta because sins of the father run deep and family bonds are bound by blood. The author is an Elmore fan as he professed in an interview in "Summary."
