When their sons are murdered in a drive-by shooting, Ike Randolph and Buddy Lee team up to avenge their untimely death. RAZORBLADE TEARS centers around a seemingly random act of violence that sets off an inescapable chain reaction for two fathers. Cosby returns this summer with RAZORBLADE TEARS, a gritty, compulsively readable thriller that packs as much of a punch with action and violence as it does with emotional resonance and depth of character development. On the heels of his breakout 2020 release Blacktop Wasteland, acclaimed crime writer S.A. Cosby’s masterpieces.The Verdict: A gritty, no-holds-barred thrill rideīuckle up and clear your calendars: one of 2021’s most buzzed-about crime novels has arrived. It’s my honor to recommend Blacktop Wasteland another of S.A. I promise you’ll keep turning the pages for the plot and the action, but the character of Bug Montage will stay with you after you’ve finished it. And did I mention that there are some of the most thrilling car chase scenes ever written in the novel! On so many levels, this is an enthralling book to read. There’s also plenty of dark humor in the book, and Cosby depicts rural Virginia with an insider’s perspective. It’s an examination of racism and poverty in the modern South, and the choices people make to transcend their circumstances. But, things don’t go as planned, and Bug is dragged back into the life he’d hoped to escape.īlacktop Wasteland is a fantastic thriller, but it’s so much more than that. When financial pressures become overwhelming, Bug agrees to take part in one last heist. The novel tells the story of Bug Montage, now an honest mechanic and owner of his own repair shop, but formerly the best wheelman on the Eastern Seaboard. Blacktop Wasteland is a superspeed-paced heist novel and a gripping rural noir, but most of all, it’s a story about a man coming to terms with family, identity, and parenthood. Cosby’s last novel, Razorblade Tears, and it’s a pleasure to rave about this novel as well.
I’m so delighted that BOTM readers will get a chance to read Blacktop Wasteland! I was thrilled to share my thoughts with BOTM readers on S.A.
