A Finalist for the Edgar Award for Best First Novel

"Remarkable . . . This isn't your ordinary coming-of-age novel, but with his bone-cutting insights into these men and the region that bred them, Joy makes it an extraordinarily intimate experience."--Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times Book Review

"Lyrical, propulsive, dark and compelling. Joy knows well the grit and gravel of his world, the soul and blemishes of the place."--Daniel Woodrell

In the country-noir tradition of Winter's Bone meets 'Breaking Bad, ' a savage and beautiful story of a young man seeking redemption.

The area surrounding Cashiers, North Carolina, is home to people of all kinds, but the world that Jacob McNeely lives in is crueler than most. His father runs a methodically organized meth ring, with local authorities on the dime to turn a blind eye to his dealings. Having dropped out of high school and cut himself off from his peers, Jacob has been working for this father for years, all on the promise that his payday will come eventually. The only joy he finds comes from reuniting with Maggie, his first love, and a girl clearly bound for bigger and better things than their hardscrabble town.

Jacob has always been resigned to play the cards that were dealt him, but when a fatal mistake changes everything, he's faced with a choice: stay and appease his father, or leave the mountains with the girl he loves. In a place where blood is thicker than water and hope takes a back seat to fate, Jacob wonders if he can muster the strength to rise above the only life he's ever known.

Good fit but Paper Thin Insoles
Size: 9.5, Color: White/Team Red
Seems like a good shoe so far and looks just like the product images. The sizing is 100% accurate i got a 9.5 and it fit perfectly. Taking a star off for the terribly paper thin insoles in came in as i had to immediately replace those with some third party memory foam insoles. Definitely needs more cushioning out of the box. For the money though i recommend them.

Made well and the purple color is true to purple ...
Made well and the purple color is true to purple. They are too big for my big 3 year old. Extra Small would fit a 5 year old perfectly I think.

Nice sleep shorts for a girl.
These worked out very well as sleep shorts for a girl. It is hard to find shirts that are not so short for girls and the purple color was well liked. These can be used more then just boys or sports or working out in the gym. They fit a 12 year old well (the size i ordered). The color looks like a nice bright (not too bright) purple.

Bought for school uniform
I bought these for my daughter's school uniform. There is no logo or brand name visible. But they are very thin.

Fit good but see through
Fits perfect but they are see through even with the 2nd layer shorts through it. Not great for public, sports, or anything of the same. Not too happy because they were for school and summer.
