When These Mountains Burn by David Joy is a explosive story about what is happening to families in the NC mountains. “Raymond Mathis has always had to bail out his drug addict son. When the law won’t help he takes matters into his own hands. Denny Rattler is always chasing his next high. Rodriguez has been undercover for the DEA trying to find the main source of drugs in the mountains. Their paths will intersect in an explosive ending.” This is one of the best audiobook performances I’ve heard. MacLeod Andrews does a fantastic job with the wonderful writing from Joy. You can feel the heartbreak and anger in Raymond. You can feel the desperation and resignation in Denny. Joy paints a bleak picture of the war on drugs in the NC mountains. Vibes are similar to Long Bright River with a southern setting. Joy has written another great novel with great characters.
