1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. exciting, edge of the seat, good read By Mike Lyon A real edge of your seat read - one of those where you want to call out warnings to the characters (several of whom need their stories told separately and in detail - a sequel or three would be great)!Incest, murder, adultery, neo-nazi white supremacists, brilliant professors, green agriculture, corrupt police, corrupt preachers, ugly right wing conservatism, gross ignorance, wild women, liquor end up rednecks - they're all here - and somehow, Barnett holds it all together.A hell of a yarn!
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Spiritualism and Superstition By Joyce Brown Will grows up in a shack tucked away outside of the town of Pecan Grove in the Ozarks. His father is an abusive alcoholic who causes Will to quit talking when he is five years old, and his mother has been beaten down by abuse, ailments, and life. Will’s rescuer is his part Native-American granny who instills in him a sense of right and wrong and inner strength that allows him to survive.Some of the town leaders, members of the local fundamentalist church, and several uneducated hotheads on neighboring farms are connected with white supremacist organizations. The towering white cross on Adam’s Needle was placed there by the Ku Klux Klan. Incidents of teenage pregnancy and the drug culture are growing among the poverty-stricken families.A young Jewish couple, scientists from K.U. dedicated to improving agriculture and restoring wildlife in the area, buy a neighboring farm. A gay couple moves to town to run the florist shop. Then, the church’s pastor retires and is replaced by a phony preacher bent on making his reputation by stirring up trouble with his xenophobic interpretations of Bible passages that appeal to the poor farmers and townsfolk ready to blame their situations on something or someone. Predictable trouble.Mass hysteria can be caused by unscrupulous, power-hungry leaders anywhere. This book is both an engrossing story unique to Will’s Ozark community and also a universal phenomenon. It’s both timely and ancient. Compare it to Winter’s Bone but with a political edge.

By Martin Kaynan Adam’s Needle is one of those fine books that provide a constant sense of foreboding as you read. Hypothesizing an ending is a different ballgame as compared to the tension you feel as you read the story unfold while waiting for the inevitable. Dormant small town bigotry and religious intolerance are triggered by the arrival in town of a stereotypical self-serving fire and brimstone preacher. The natives really do get restless when the author’s version of Jim and Tammy Baker pound away to stoke the fires of prejudice. Beth Barnett has created a truly enjoyable and fast read. A made for order TV special if there ever was one.
