Looking for Alaska meets Breaking Bad in this winding, twisty ( Kirkus Reviews ) novel about three teens, caught in the middle of the opioid crisis in rural Appalachia, whose world literally blows up around them. For as long as Miri can remember its been her and her dad, Poe, in Paradise--what Poe calls their home--hidden away from prying eyes in rural Kentucky. Its not like Miri doesnt know what her dad does or why people call him the Wizard. Its not like she doesnt know why Clay, her one friend and Poes right-hand man, patrols the grounds with a machine gun. Its nothing new, but lately Paradise has started to feel more like a prison. Enter Fen. The new kid in town could prove to be exactly the distraction Miri needs...but nothing is ever simple. Poe doesnt take kindly to strangers. Fens DEA agent father is a little too interested in Miris family. And Clay isnt satisfied with being just friends with Miri anymore. But whats past is prologue--its what will follow that will wreck everything. Shining a klieg light on the opioid crisis coursing through this country, Wrecked will have readers on the edge of their seat right up until the explosive ending.
