Comments:
Dylan, aka Butcher Boy was convicted of killing his family in the '70s. Polly was Mississippi trailer trash. In present time, their paths cross but is history destined to repeat itself?
I did have some problems with the vagueness of the writing and the way that it jumped around from character to character, but I enjoyed the setting very much.
My favorite thing about the book was the meaning behind the title.
