“I can't believe I waited as long as I did to read this! I can't remember the last time I was so enthralled in a book. From the first sentence to the last, I was hooked. I won't go into detail so as not to spoil the amazing plot, but WOW can S.A. Cosby tell a story that puts you on the edge of your seat, hanging on every word.”

“Truly excellent read. Great writing and perfect pacing. Definitely couldn't put it down! I listened to the audio and the narrator, Adam Lazarre-White, did an amazing job.”

“An extremely captivating and suspenseful novel that keeps you yearning to learn the whole story with tension of many kinds (racial, religious, familial, sexual). S.A. Cosby masterfully shows us how hiding away past pain only causes us to hurt others, and ourselves, as individuals, families, communities, and a nation. ”

“Wow! What a roller coaster ride. I love that Cosby set up the story by talking about the land and the trauma that it can hold. Well done sir. ”

“What appears at the start to be a story about a Black boy being killed by police turns into a layered tale of sustained abuse, systemic neglect, and deranged evangelical serial killers set in a small Appalachian town. At no point reading this powerful and suspenseful mystery did I have any guess where it was going and it was such a wonderful ride. I have directly told several coworkers that they need to read this and I'm patiently waiting for someone to so we can talk about it. ”

“S.A. Cosby has given us an early favorite for the best crime fiction novel of the year with All the Sinners Bleed. We are big fans of his two previous books (Blacktop Wasteland and Razorblade Tears), and Cosby knocks it out of the park as he writes from the perspective of a town’s first black sheriff and his descent into the mid of a serial killer. It’s riveting while also exploring major issues like race, policing, and religion.”

“Not only was this a riveting mystery, but there were such really engaging turns of phrases that just really caught my attention. The narrator was fantastic and I didn't want to stop listening. I really hope there will be more Titus Crowne. ”

"Lazarre-White masterfully portrays people of multiple races, old and young. He also delivers Cosby's reflections on family, grief, and faith with genuine introspection and without distracting from the tense plotlines...This is a gripping, timely tale—beautifully told." —AudioFile (Earphones Award winner)
The new novel from New York Times bestselling and Los Angeles Times Book Prize-winning author S. A. Cosby, "one of the most muscular, distinctive, grab-you-by-both-ears voices in American crime fiction.” —The Washington Post.
A Black sheriff. A serial killer.
A small town ready to combust.
Titus Crown is the first Black sheriff in the history of Charon County, Virginia. In recent decades, quiet Charon has had only two murders. But after years of working as an FBI agent, Titus knows better than anyone that while his hometown might seem like a land of moonshine, cornbread, and honeysuckle, secrets always fester under the surface.
Then a year to the day after Titus’s election, a school teacher is killed by a former student and the student is 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 projects 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.
Powerful and unforgettable, All the Sinners Bleed confirms S. A. Cosby as “one of the most muscular, distinctive, grab-you-by-both-ears voices in American crime fiction” (The Washington Post).
