A savagely realistic, hard-boiled novel of the South in the tradition of Erskine Caldwell’s Tobacco Road and God’s Little Acre.
Hank Samson comes home from the WWII to find his half-crazed father terrorizing their Louisiana bayou town…and his brutish brother running amok with lust and violence. But Hank has seen a better way to live and now has to choose beween running away with the girl he loves…or staying and fighting his own family.
