What. This is unhinged and in a badly done way. Not a big fan of “running-from-the-law” tropes anyway, but I can acknowledge some like “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” types are engaging. But here we go from a man slowly deconstructing his faith, then a divorce as a result - to him kidnapping his son(??) And he’s going to Florida to find his lost brother who will “make it all right”? Lost me.

Really enjoying the writing style - reminds me of some of Jesse Stuart’s stuff. It’s a quiet, numb read. I’m not sure how to describe it well. But I truly connect with the character so far.
