As a warning, the subject matter of this book is harrowing and if you are the least bit squeamish when it comes to animals, I suggest that you quickly turn the other way. That being said, I had to put this book down a couple of times, yet the writing is captivating and I found myself right back in the middle of Penn Cage’s life.
As the mayor of Natchez, Mississippi, Penn had no idea of the seedier side of things that were going on in his beloved town. When an old friend brings pictures and stories to his attention Penn cannot look the other way and by jumping headlong into this underworld, he puts both his and his family’s life in danger.
There is not one misplaced character in this book. Each have a story, as gritty as it may be, and by the end, not everyone is left standing, but those that are, will never be the same again.
