Bent Road by Lori Roy

I am listening to this book on audio CD.  I do not like the audio book reader but I am pushing forward with it.  A man moves his family from Detroit in reaction to the Detroit race riots of 1960's to his hometown in the Kansas farmland. Here old secrets and new ones make him and his family confront the reality of small town living.  He had left after the unsolved murder of his sister.  His other sister has married the man most feel is responsible who is a drunk and beats his wife. 

I am not finished but will check back when I do.  I am caught by the story.  It is dark but I'm hooked.
