"Powerful and disturbing, but so is the shame and hardship passed down from generation to generation - the legacy of the abuser. We feel Jayrod's pain, both physical and emotional, as he tries to escape his fate, jump at each creak of the floor board, and breathe a sigh of relief each time he is given a momentary reprieve. This book is a must read." --
Kat Kennedy, editor Southern Delta Literary Magazine
"Before you know it, you're drawn in to the story and you forget it is just a story. You can see the characters - it was almost as if I could have reached out and touched them. Carl does this with a very limited amount of words and that, folks, is the way a good author does it." --
Suzan Tisdale, author of Laiden's Daughter
"This is what one would call a crossover novel. It is accessible for students of middle school or high school (and as a teacher I would recommend it for summer reading lists), but it is also a compelling read for adults as well. In fact, it is a tour de force: powerfully written, evocative, with all the lushness of the South, and all the poignancy of being an abused boy on the road and far from home." --
Amazon Review
