About this listen
The Spark of Wrath continues the saga of the dysfunctional Cader family. Darrell, the youngest son of Billy Jay Cader, is coming of age and trying to accept his background of abuse. He's tired of explaining his past and attempts to kill his poppa with his preacher's shotgun.
He'd merely wounded him, along with his own pride, and now, the reality of his poppa getting away with murdering his only brother and leaving them on their own sparks the embers of hate inside him.
Could the new girl in school draw his internal attention away from his past and lead him down a different path?
Or, was the Cader family and those who surrounded them bound for more dysfunction and tragedy?
Climb aboard and be whisked back to a small Florida coastal town in the early eighties and see how Franklin County, Florida - as straight, flat, and open as it can be - can lead people on the most twisted and crooked path possible. Murder, lies, greed, adultery, and spiritual deception. The road t's and as easy as the choices to make appears, the wrong turn is usually taken.
The Mason Jar form of justice from book one - The Judgment Game - continues on.

Story
Billy Jay Cader came from an abusive past. Self-preservation forced him to run away at the age of 14. His daddy was full of demons and played a sadistic game in a lottery-type punishment with his boy. When Billy Jay ran from his daddy, he hoped to outrun those demons as well. As time passed, he realized he hadn't been able to flee fast enough to escape them. Now those mental monsters were tightly nestled within. He was the new vessel to carry his daddy's wrath.

After leaving the city life behind to escape my loveless marriage, I moved to small-town Havenbarrow for a fresh start. What I didn’t expect was to find myself drawn to the town’s black sheep. They called him troubled, cold, a man with a dark past. What everyone seemed to miss about Jax was the splashes of light in his eyes, the random acts of kindness he performed when no one was watching, and the way he made me smile and laugh.

Enthralling but a sharp change from the first
I loved this story but i think it took too much of a turn to the teen drama. Teen drama is fine but not what I came to this series for

like a good stew... the plot thickens.......
The second book in this series, and the tension grows until it explodes. Billy Jay is losing control, the lines blur and are crossed here oh so many times! A missing teen, a sordid affair, a disturbing secret that has life altering consequences. The kettle is boiling and it's about to scream!

Most engrossing modern thriller in decades!
Eli Pope and his Mason Jar Series are getting better with each new book. Excellently written, gritty, tough, real, and brutally honest in its telling and very heartfelt in other ways. Always with a deeper meaning just underneath the surface.
Paul J. McSorley delivers yet another "spot-on" performance and it truly appears as if he is channeling each character in this series. I can't imagine another voice for this story and this motley crew of characters. Excellent PJM!
Moving on to book 3 and I've already purchased book 4. I will go wherever this story takes me. It is a must-listen if you like psychological thrillers. You will not be disappointed.
