Critically acclaimed author David Joy, whose debut, Where All
Light Tends to Go, was hailed as “a savagely moving novel
that will likely become an important addition to the great body of
Southern literature” (The Huffington Post), returns to
the mountains of North Carolina with a powerful story about the
inescapable weight of the past.
"Lyrical, propulsive, dark and compelling. Joy knows well the
grit and gravel of his world, the soul and blemishes of the
place."--Daniel Woodrell
