Review of 'If ever I return, pretty Peggy-O' on 'Storygraph'

3 stars

I actually would've given this a 3.5 if that was an option. Set in a small town in the Appalachian mountains, this book concerns a high school reunion, the remnants of Vietnam, and the violence towards a sort of famous folk singer who just moved into town. It was actually quite depressing in many ways; not your average small-town everything is peachy type of tale. I enjoyed it and it made for a good mystery/thriller.
