A compelling story from the perspective of a Black Southern sheriff combatting engrained historical racism and a serial killer case in tandem. I have loved all of S.A. Cosby’s books so far, and this one felt a little darker and harder particularly because of the serial killer’s abuse of children and the extremely violent methods of murdering some of his associates. The ending felt a bit rushed to me, but overall a very insightful neo-noir crime novel that I would recommend to anyone who loves this genre.
