Route 12 is two haunting novellas set in Appalachia in the seventies and eighties. These are stories of people down on their luck-a girl crippled by a bad dose of polio vaccine, a young pregnant woman with no one to turn to, a mother desperate for cash who makes a terrible mistake. In this debut book from Marietta Miles, God’s country is as corrupt as any place on earth and trusting anyone is a dangerous proposition.

Praise for ROUTE 12:

Miles rolls on instinct infused with raw talent, utilizing a palate of emotion to repaint what we thought was Southern noir, turning it into something new, something poignant, something entirely hers. -Tom Pitts, author of Hustle and Knuckleball
