Publisher's Summary:
In the tradition of Cormac McCarthy and Larry Brown comes a haunting story about men, their fathers, their sons, and the legacy of violence. For Patterson Wells, disaster is the norm. Working alongside dangerous, desperate, itinerant men as a tree clearer in disaster zones, hes still dealing with the loss of his young son. Writing letters to the boy offers some solace. The bottle gives more. Upon a return trip to Colorado, Patterson stops to go fishing with an old acquaintance, only to find him in a meth-induced delirium and keeping a woman tied up in the bathtub. In the ensuing chain of events, which will test not only his future but his past, Patterson tries to do the right thing. Still, in the lives of those he knows, violence and justice have made of each other strange, intoxicating bedfellows.

Pretentious and dull
A few good turns of phrase can't really rescue this turgid, overwrought morass.
Five Stars
This is a great story of you're into southern noir. Really shows the complexities of the characters.
Book with a universal appeal
Excellent read for anyone who wants to know where they came from. Whether you're a father or not, you'll identify with some portion of this novel. Violent, sexy, enlightening, insightful, and plain sad all at once. I kept hearing that this was one of the best works to come out this year. I wasn't disappointed in the least.
Awesome
Great book about losses we have in life and the consequences those losses bring. Some of those consequences aren't our own fault but many of them are..
love, regret
A book of loss, love, regret. Real human emotions spiced up with drugs and a whole lot of violence. It even brought a tear at the end. Nice work, Mr. Whitmer.
