Title | ScrappyMags... The Blog | My crazy reading, NKOTB lovin', teaching, wanna-be Martha, crafting, cooking, dog-loving world. |
Description | Nope, nothing to see here... nothing at all.... uhhh.... move along." Shortest Summary Ever: Charlie Parker has a score to settle in 1999. His wife and daughter murdered, he finds himself in Cargill, Arkansas, a veritable "armpit " of America. Black girls are dying in horrifying ways while some prefer to sweep them away and preserve the town's image, thus cementing the acquisition of a new corporation with promises of wealth for all. Parker is reluctantly pulled in to help a local officer - while most don't want him there and will go to great lengths to keep Parker, and the town secrets, hush-hush. Thoughts: I didn't realize Arkansas was considered "the South" . I know that might seem ignorantly simple, but I grew up in Michigan and now reside in the Carolinas (definitely south). I think of Texas as the South and Alabama and Mississippi - KY, TN... the Virginias. So here's Arkansas and I go "hmmmm", because let me fess up - the Netflix show Ozark and Bill Clinton are about all I know of the state. Wait unless that's Missouri... see what I mean? But here's where it gets familiar - the longer I've lived in the South the more I've been introduced to the "good ol' boy" culture from this novel - in schools, industries and yep - police departments. I was instantly into drawn this narrative - the corruption and underhandedness of the law enforcement? Resonates. If you've never lived in an area like this, well, it's an experience. Welcome to the dirty south. This is my first Charlie Parker series book read and I had no trouble dropping by 18 books in, though I usually avoid plucking random series books off the tree, but the plot sounded too good and the title? Sold! I enjoyed the complicated character of Charlie Parker - a seemingly ruined man with a single-minded mission: find the sadistic killer of his wife and daughter. He's sarcastic (a trait Southerners I've met do NOT appreciate), and focused - tormented and determined all at once. His story simply beckons the reader. The plot is a bit of jazz... it's fast and frantic turning slow and mellow. I enjoyed the tune but at times lost a little interest. But Charlie kept me coming back. And I'll be back for another book or two. All my reviews available at scrappymags.com around time of publication. Genre: Mystery/Police Who-done-it Recommend to: Reminds me a bit of Jack Reacher, those in the mood for a solid police mystery. Not recommended to: if you need quick and done. This book has a few slow spots. Needs time to breathe. Thank you to the author, NetGalley and Atria Books for my advanced copy in exchange for my always-honest review and for making me mentally cross off Arkansas on my "places to visit." (Kidding!) |
