The families would have turned the Kentucky hills scarlet with Hannacker and McClusky blood if four women hadnâÇÖt ended the war before it began.Their 'CrowâÇÖs Pledge' stopped the killing, but the hatred lived on.When the countyâÇÖs National Guard unit is called up thirty-five years later, the Hannackers and McCluskys take their feud to Vietnam with them.

But thereâÇÖs no CrowâÇÖs Pledge to stop the bloodshed this time.Fire In The Holeáis the first book in Ninie HammonâÇÖs newáCornbread Mafiaáseries, a fictionalized retelling of the real Cornbread Mafia that sprung up in picturesque Marion County, Kentucky, and grew into the largest illegal marijuana-growing operation in U.S. history.
