Acerca deste livro eletrónico
Two abandoned brothers. One got lucky. One got even . . . "Pedal-to-the-metal narrative drive [and] quirky, Elmore Leonard–style characters. . . . [A] winner." ― Booklist
Thirteen years ago, the Jakes brothers were found in the trailer where they'd been left by their mother. The youngest boy, Keith, found a happy home. The oldest son, Mick, never did, but he always dreamed of the day when the siblings might be reunited.
Now, Mick is determined to make that happen—even if it means kidnapping Keith . . .
Meanwhile, the mother they haven't seen in years is in trouble. And things are rapidly spinning out of control. All three are in far greater danger than they bargained for, and as the brothers are forced to fight for their survival once again, neither knows who to trust, or who'll be left standing at the end . . .
"Reminded me by turns of everything from Stephen Hunter's Dirty White Boys to Cormac McCarthy's No Country for Old Men. . . . It would be tough to find a better book to read this summer." ― Bookreporter
