Blown' Up A Storm (Cornbread Mafia Book 2) Kindle Edition

Family loyalties, deadly feuds, and international drug wars are brought to life in Ninie Hammon’s new intergenerational tale inspired by the story of the Cornbread Mafia in rural Kentucky.

Nobody knows what started the feud between the Hannackers and the McCluskys, but they’ve been enemies for generations. Now that the cash crop of choice for both is marijuana, the stakes have risen – and Riley Hannacker joins other Vietnam vets from Callison County to form a marijuana-growing co-op called the Cornbread Mafia.

But Jackson McClusky harbors a dark secret from the war. It was he, and not the Cong, who fired that rocket into a bunker, killing and maiming his buddies. When Riley begins to remember what happened, Jackson sets out to kill them all.

It’s not just Jackson plotting their deaths. They outsmarted Kentucky State Police Detective Booth Graham — now he is out for blood. And a competing Colombian drug cartel is sending a hit squad to wipe out the whole Cornbread Mafia in a hail of gunfire.

Will the death plots by the McCluskys and the law succeed? Can they survive the cartel’s attack? And can they pull off an elaborate ruse to prevent future bloodshed by convincing all the South Americans that a handful of former soldiers is really an army of ruthless, blood-thirsty hillbillies? Will the other drug cartels buy the hoax? Will they believe the Cornbread Mafia really is the meanest dog in the junkyard?

Blowin’ Up A Storm is the second book in Ninie Hammon’s new Cornbread Mafia series, a fictional story inspired by the real Cornbread Mafia that sprang up in picturesque Marion County, Kentucky, and grew into the largest illegal marijuana-growing operation in U.S. history.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Ninie Hammon (rhymes with shiny, not skinny) grew up in Muleshoe, Texas, got a BA in English and theatre from Texas Tech University and snagged a job as a newspaper reporter. She didn't know a thing about journalism, but her editor said if she could write he could teach her the rest of it and if she couldn't write the rest of it didn't matter. She hung in there for a 25-year career as a journalist. As soon as she figured out that making up the facts was a whole lot more fun than reporting them, she turned to fiction and never looked back.

Ninie now writes suspense--every flavor except pistachio: psychological suspense, inspirational suspense, suspense thrillers, paranormal suspense, suspense mysteries.

In every book she keeps this promise to her Loyal Reader: "I will tell you a story in a distinctive voice you'll always recognize, about people as ordinary as you are--people who have been slammed by something they didn’t sign on for, and now they must fight for their lives. Then smack in the middle of their everyday worlds, those people encounter the unexplainable--and it's always the game-changer."

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Book I've Read in a While

This story gets down deep into the psyches, personal experiences, and state of mind of the characters. It causes one to take a moment and wonder: if a person got the chance to take revenge on someone that has profoundly affected their life, essentially taken family and life as they know it away from them—would it make things “all better” to do so, or would it in actuality make a person feel worse?

This book revealed some answers from the previous book. As usual with Ms. Hammon's books, Blowin' up a storm caught my interest and kept it for the entire book. Thank you Ms. Hammond for this great story.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just when you think a series can't get any better. it does!!
Reviewed in the United States on February 27, 2022
I finished reading this book about twenty minutes ago, having read the last 40% or so in one go. This is extremely rare for me as my concentration span has not improved with years elapsed, and I find it hard to read for more than about half an hour at a time.
To say this bit deep and kept me hooked in, would be an understatement of note!
This is fiction, but it is just so credible that it may as well be reality.
As always, Ninie Hammon's attention to detail, vivid descriptive work, and colourful characters that come alive, make for a reading treat that builds on the preceding series opener "Fire in the hole", and leaves the reader with an appetite for more.
There will be many other reviews that give a good idea on the actual setting, background and story, so I won't add to those - I prefer to comment on the entertainment value, and standard of writing, both of which are absolutely first-class.
If you have not yet sampled Ninie Hammon's writing, I strongly suggest you pick up book one in this series and start there - I have no doubt you will be back for more, and you will not be disappointed!!
