Have you ever found yourself standing at the crossroads of a dream, wondering if the path to success is truly meant for you? S.A. Cosby, the man who journeyed from hardware store aisles to the New York Times Bestseller list, sits with me, Nadine Matheson, to share the twists and turns of such a trek. We exchange stories of encouragement from unexpected places and the profound influence a single teacher can have on a fledgling writer's destiny.
S.A. Cosby is the author of three New York Times Bestsellers, Blacktop Wasteland, Razorblade Tears and All The Sinners Bleed and recounts his ascent. We also grapple with the weighty responsibilities shouldered by storytellers: to both captivate and challenge, to entertain and enlighten.
All The Sinners Bleed
A BLACK SHERIFF. A SERIAL KILLER.
AND A SMALL TOWN READY TO COMBUST.
Titus Crown is the first Black sheriff in the history of Charon County, Virginia. In recent decades, Charon has had only two murders. After years of working as an FBI agent, no one knows better than Titus that while his hometown might seem like a land of moonshine, cornbread, and honeysuckle, secrets always fester under the surface.
But a year to the day after Titus's election, a school teacher is killed by a former student. The student is then fatally shot by Titus's deputies.
As Titus investigates the shootings, he unearths terrible crimes, and a serial killer who has been hiding in plain sight, haunting the dirt lanes and woodland clearings of Charon. With the killer's possible connections to a local church and the town's harrowing history weighing on him, Titus tries to project confidence about closing the case while concealing a painful secret from his own past. At the same time, he also has to contend with a far-right group that wants to hold a parade in celebration of the town's Confederate history.
Charon is Titus's home and his heart. But where faith and violence meet, there will be a reckoning.
