"Burn What Will Burn is a gritty, gripping mystery
and an enthralling character study of its poet-protagonist,
who is self-exiled and bedeviled by the locals, the summer
Arkansas heat, and his own past. I was hooked by sentence
one and burned right through the pages."—Michael Kardos,
author of Before He Finds Her Bob Reynolds doesn't recognize the body in the creek, but he
does recognize the danger of it. He's a newcomer to town,
not entirely welcome, and not entirely on good footing with
the sheriff. So far he's kept his head down, mostly over the
bar at the Crow's Nest. But he has interests other than
drinking and spending his inheritance, including one that
goes by the name Tammy Fay Smith and who may have caught the
sheriff's eye as well. Reynolds would rather pretend he never saw the body, but
when it disappears, he begins to doubt what little he knew
about this secretive town, a town that seems to become more
unwelcoming by the day. Try as he might, he just can't
forget the body, despite the advice he's been given to do
so, and despite the evidence to suggest that he might be
disappearing himself soon enough. Following his acclaimed, award-winning debut, Burn What
Will Burn confirms CB McKenzie as a one-of-a-kind crime
novelist with an unforgettably original voice.
