Her goal had been to leave her life of poverty and join the Army, but first she must find her father, teach her little brothers to fend for themselves, and escape a downward spiral of misery.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Daniel Woodrell's modern classic is an unforgettable tale of desperation and courage that inspired the award-winning film starring Jennifer Lawrence. </b><br /><br /> Ree Dolly's father has skipped bail on charges that he ran a crystal meth lab, and the Dollys will lose their house if he doesn't show up for his next court date. With two young brothers depending on her, 16-year-old Ree knows she has to bring her father back, dead or alive. Living in the harsh poverty of the Ozarks, Ree learns quickly that asking questions of the rough Dolly clan can be a fatal mistake. But, as an unsettling revelation lurks, Ree discovers unforeseen depths in herself and in a family network that protects its own at any cost.<br /><br /><b>"The lineage from Faulkner to Woodrell runs as deep and true as an Ozark stream in this book...his most profound and haunting yet." -- <i>Los Angeles Times Book Review</i></b><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A courageous, audacious, resourceful 16-year-old girl destined to enter the pantheon of literature's heroines."--<b>Donald Harrington</b>, <b><i>Atlanta Journal Constitution</b></i><br><br>"Daniel Woodrell has produced another stunner, a bleak, beautifully told story about the inescapable bonds of land and blood--fiction at its finest."--<b><i>Kansas City Star</b></i><br><br>"Heroines this inspiring don't come along often.
