Very good read. Set in Arkansas in 1952 on a poor cotton farm during the harvest, the author tells the story via a 7yo boy and gets it perfect. A hill family and some Mexican migrant workers are hired on to pick the cotton, and there are two dangerous men among them. Luke sees things he shouldn't, starts keeping secrets, and then the floods come. A lot of twists and turns that keep you turning the page to see what happens next. Much better than the latter literature books that I read (Bleachers and Calico Joe).
