Summary
The last time Ree saw her father, he didn’t bring food or money, but promised he’d be back soon with a paper sack of cash and a truckload of delights. Since he left, she’s had to look after her mother (sedated and losing her looks) and her two younger brothers. Ree hopes the boys won’t turn out like the others in the Ozark mountains – hard and mean before they’ve learnt to shave.
One cold winter’s day, Ree discovers that her father has put up their house as bail and that it’ll be sold…

Such knowledge has many consequences, one of them is exhilaration. - Niall Griffiths, ObserverBrutal, violent and completely gripping - Independent on SundayAbout The Author
