Brace yourself for this horrific Southern gothic narrated by Jason Culp in a rich Texas twang. Daniel Russell was 13 when his father drove them off a bridge into Moon Lake. Nearly 10 years later, Daniel returns when the car is pulled from the lake and a grisly discovery changes everything he knew about his hometown. Culp's accent and characterization bring Daniel to life with an earnestness that both complements and contrasts with the heavy use of scatological similes in the darkly humorous writing. His portrayals of supporting characters are equally vibrant. He expertly spins this yarn, giving appropriate weight to the themes of racism and greed, capped off with a gruesome conspiracy that will keep listeners up at night.
