I just couldn't take the jarring POV changes between third-person-adult-cop and first-person-southern-yokel-child...

Overall this book was disappointing. The author clearly knows very little about Alabama. Linguistics, euphemisms, even the weather and clothing worn by characters was wrong (who wears long underwear in Alabama?) and kept distracting me from the storyline. Dropped plot threads didn't help matters. Don't bother.

Decent story line but the climax and conclusion felt very rushed.

I got this from NetGalley. The story isn't bad, but there are some definite problems with this book. The dialogue is worthy of a middle school student. It is annoying, the only exception being the two boys, who are middle school students. There are some details that are focused on in terms of the reasons for the killings, but never fully explained. The distraction of the hokey dialogue took away a lot of the suspense, but the story was just (barely) good enough to keep me going. Not my favorite.
