Cosby\u2019s eagerly awaited follow-up to <em>Razorblade Tears<\/em>. This is, unsurprisingly, a masterpiece of Southern noir, but that\u2019s selling it short: it\u2019s a fantastic novel, period. The first responders to the shooting are led by Sherriff Titus Crown, a Black man who won a contentious, racist battle for his seat and who now safeguards Klan members and kind neighbors alike. Titus is able for them all, alternating deep kindness with cutting, politically savvy one-liners that put racists in their place. (Appropriate, given his lack of fondness for \u201cstand[ing] there like an extra in <em>Gone with the Wind<\/em>.\u201d) But even he is thrown when the investigation into the school shooter\u2014a Black man killed at the scene by white cops\u2014uncovers a grisly secret. Join Titus and his meticulously drawn, flawed family, colleagues, and townsfolk for a deep introspection on how evil begets evil and good begets good. And watch for the gripping movie that\u2019s sure to spring from Cosby\u2019s pages.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A school shooting in fictional Charon County, VA, reveals horror and catalyzes reckoning in S.A.
