Ozark Dogs

Jeremiah Fitzjurls took over raising his granddaughter Joanna after his son was convicted of capital murder, training her to shoot and fight in an Ozark junkyard turned makeshift armory. But no amount of preparation can fully protect her when the Ledfords — a family of meth dealers and white supremacists who've never forgiven the Fitzjurls for an old grievance — come to collect what they believe they're owed.

Eli Cranor, drawing on a real Arkansas case, builds a Southern thriller around two families whose long-simmering feud finally erupts into violence, weighing how far people will go to protect, or destroy, their own.
