Yvonne Osborne Author Of Black River

From my list on rural noir tension and environmental conflict.

Why am I passionate about this?

I grew up on a fifth-generation family farm, schooled around the dining table by stories of bootleggers, hoodlums, and environmental shysters. Raised by parents and grandparents who believed in the ancient wisdom of husbandry versus the growing use of chemicals and crop dusters.  Those who believed what was good for all was good enough for one. The common good versus the selfish exploitation of land, animals, and labor.

Yvonne Osborne Why Yvonne loves this book

I loved this book because it shows how class disparity still exists, how it complicates a teenage love affair and transcends family secrets.

As a reader, I found myself rooting for all of the main characters, though they are facing impossible choices, working against each other and their own best interests, which are mercurial and contradictory.

Fast-moving and propulsive storytelling.
