Praise for Eli Cranor  “A major work from a bright, young talent.” —Tod Goldberg, USA Today, **** out of **** stars “Sweeps the reader in from the first page . . . Ozark Dogs is a gritty, authentic triumph, one howling to be turned into a film or TV series.” —Financial Times “Eli Cranor has an eye for catfish country and an ear for its voices.” —The Times (UK) “Raw, gritty, and darkly beautiful noir at its finest. Cranor digs deep into the hard places, the hard choices that crush and grind. And he does so with great tenderness for his flawed and broken characters as they seek revenge, cling to honor, and sacrifice everything for family. This is a writer to watch.” —Lisa Unger, New York Times bestselling author of Secluded Cabin Sleeps Six “Eli Cranor is that rare writer who can make you gasp, cry and cheer often in the same paragraph.” —S.A. Cosby, New York Times bestselling author of Razorblade Tears and Blacktop Wasteland “A story of family burdens and dark legacies, it’s thrillingly told, deeply wrenching,not to be missed.” —Megan Abbott, New York Times bestselling author of The Turnout “Cranor is one of the South’s best contemporary chroniclers, and his keen eye is onfull display here.” —Gabino Iglesias, author of The Devil Takes You Home “Scorching country noir... There is not one character on either side of the familydivide who doesn't bring the reader up short by displaying an unexpected layer of complexity—and even, sometimes, compassion. In only his second novel, Cranor has transformed a familiar noir theme into a multidimensional tragedy of great power and beauty.” —Booklist, Starred Review
