Such a fantastic dark and gritty crime novel. This is not my typical genre so I don't have much to compare it to but I would definitely recommend for anyone that enjoys dark crime thrillers (with quite a bit of violence).

This book has a beautiful writing style and I really enjoyed the protagonist. I loved the exploration of race (particularly the experience of a Black sheriff trying to change the state of policing within his small town - is it even possible?), white supremacy and Christian nationalism - it feels very relevant to the current sociopolitical climate of the United States.

The pacing in the middle didn't quite work for me which is why it's not quite a 5 star but I definitely intend to read more by this author! Also the audiobook narrator is fantastic.

First book I've read from S.A. Crosby and it did not disappoint. It gives you a couple of pages of backstory and then it jumps right into the action. It's a dark tense ride as Sherriff Titus Crown hunts down a serial killer. The person he is hunting could be anyone he knows as tensions are high in a small town plagued by racism and he's the town's first elected Black Sheriff.
