Central to this novel is the doctrine of lucid intervals, which allow a testator with some mental impairment to make a valid will during periods of clarity. When a prime witness in the will contest of a wealthy spinster's estate turns up dead, attorney Jim Hiram's case investigation leads him into the hardscrabble Southern Ohio backwoods of meth and opiates. Drinkin' Wine Spoddy Oddy In A Honkeytonk In Scioty identifies this region, in the same mythic terrain as Yoknapatawpha County. This literary novel includes historical elements reaching back to the Civil War, the World Wars, the Depression and the New Deal, and then shows them impinging on the present.
