As the secret federal sting operation Snakehead targets the fentanyl trade, the small mill town of Stanton, Massachusetts, becomes a battlefield in the war on drugs and three mothers-newspaper reporter Laura Everett, businesswoman Mimi Sullivan, and machinist Angie Gillen-must overcome their differences and confront their pasts to keep their troubled teenagers out of the crossfire. Help comes from unexpected quarters when several Stanton cops break ranks with their superiors after learning that Snakehead's real mission is to militarize the police and northern border. Stakes rise as the opioid crisis deepens and Mimi's daughter sinks further into depression and heroin addiction. Laura's and Angie's sons try to save her, but their efforts only place her more at risk and she is forced to run away. Ultimately, the deadly violence being perpetrated all around her-by gangs, dealers, and those running the Snakehead operation-compels Laura to dig deep within herself for the power to take charge. A fast-paced, multilayered thriller that reveals the high human costs of the drug war, Last Place Called Home is also a story about love and loyalty to family, friends, and place. Stanton is a hard place to live in-but it's an even harder place to leave.
