Sammy lives in that part of society that is typically known as the scum of the earth among the snobs and the like. He doesn't care what they think because he knows that he has probably got to steal them blind and move one (while they collect their precious insurance money and replace it all anyway). As everything goes in his life, he becomes acquainted with a brother and sister, Jason and Jamalee (and their mother), and then with a part of their own world and hassles. Jason is eye candy to the women clients at the beauty shop even though it is well known that the teenager is gay. Jamalee is counting on him to be her ticket out of the small Ozark town to a life that sure as hell must be better than where they are now. Her tomato red hair equals the fire of her temper and determination. Her mother, a woman about town if you know what I mean, lives next door and prefers to be called by her first name lest her man friends think her old. When Jason is found in a local green scum covered pond and the coroner records it accidental, the rest of the group think differently and aim to prove that the country club snobs are involved.
This is a mesmerizing audio book to say the least! The cast is amazingly in Ozark character and so believable that you will feel as if you were sitting at the booth behind them as Sammy shares the tale. Bravo to the author! This is one of my favorite books I have read recently.
