God, drugs, corruption, and morality come together in this gripping tale of desperation. In Gasconade County, Missouri—once called the meth capital of the world—Deputy Sheriff Dale Banks discovers $52,000 hidden in the broken-down trailer that Jerry Dean Skaggs uses for cooking crystal. And he takes it. Banks knows what he did was wrong, but he did it for all the right reasons. At least, he thinks so. But for every wrong deed, there is a consequence. Jerry Dean can't afford to lose that $52,000—he owes it to his partners and to a crooked cop. He also can't afford to disappoint the crazed and fearsome Reverend Butch Pogue, who is expecting Jerry Dean to deliver the chemicals the reverend needs for his next batch of meth. To avoid the holy man's wrath, Jerry Dean sets in motion a series of events that will threaten Banks' family, his life, and everything he thinks he knows about the world.

Matthew McBride
burst onto the crime-writing scene with his shocking and visceral short stories
of bad men and good guns. His powerful first novel, Frank Sinatra in a Blender, confirms what noir and crime pros were
murmuring online for months—this guy is the one to watch. McBride lives on a
farm in rural Missouri with his wife and a bull named Hemingway. He started
writing on the assembly line at a Chrysler plant in Saint Louis, where he worked
for thirteen years. Now he's a force to be reckoned with as a crime writer.
Welcome a new voice that's raw, wild, and completely original.
