I live in the Appalachians Mountains of Virginia, so this book really resonated with me in so many ways. Though this book takes place in West Virginia, it really didn't matter. Everything you see, hear, feel, everything that happens in this book with exception of the main story line is happening or has happened here in my part of the mountains. The drug epidemic, or the killing of innocents is so odd here because it never use to happen.

I felt very close to the town as it could have been mine.
Great writing, loved the characters, especially the setting, the story line was unique, as I haven't read too many that take place in the Appalachia's and the ending was all wrapped up perfectly.

I totally did not see it coming on who was behind the murders. Wow..

I highly recommend this.
