What can I say that has yet to be said? Addictive, propulsive, gritty, violent. But within that space, Cosby tackles an array of themes and injustices: race, policing, religion, bigotry, mental illness, abuse of power, and sexual abuse. Phew! That's a lot, but it works! There's poetry in Cosby's unique blend of character study, moral teachings, and crime fiction.

I love Razorblade Tears, so I hoped Cosby might revisit some of his previous themes - which he did. But my favorite in Sinners is his introspection on religion. Cosby infuses scripture and religious symbolism to make clear plot points. He also untangles the meaning of faith, good vs. evil, White Evangelicals, and Black Christians. In his words, "the South is Christ-haunted by hypocrisy of religion." Deep, layered, and thought-provoking for crime fiction.

Another highlight is the setting: Charon County. This county feels like a character, adding a bit of rural small-town noir. Charon's soul is as dark as the story itself, populated with deeply religious citizens, white supremacists, Blacks who've been mistreated by law enforcement, and drug-fueled secrets and lies. Titus, the county's first Black sheriff, navigates all these roadblocks as he tries to capture Charon County's serial killer. The murder scenes are challenging to read. Some scenes are more vividly described than others, but the emotional toll drains the spirit of Titus and his fellow officers - a complete gut punch for the reader.

All of The Sinners Bleed is a dark literary masterpiece. I’m confident this book will land as one of my favorites of 2023.

I picked this up at TLA (Texas Library Association Conference) because I had heard of this author before but hadn’t read him. And good thing I did because then I saw like 4 to 5 people hyping it up and saying how good it was. And y’all know me……….. I hate being left out lol

So first off let me just say how invested I was in this plot. I couldn’t get my head (ears?) out of this book. It was so realistic. A little scary because I’m sure people would really act like that. Trying to act like he didn’t earn his position even though he was voted into it. And making him feel like what he’s doing wasn’t good enough and so they were going to replace him with someone else. Let me just say, I wanted to throttle everyone and I don’t blame him not one bit for what he did at the end. Although I can’t lie I didn’t want him to. But that’s neither here nor there.

The characters were so good. Even though I guessed who it was, I was so interested in the back stories of them and seeing where they went from there. Like the romance absolutely could have been left out of this, but the way I was so invested in it because I wanted him to have one good thing. But alas it didn’t really matter. Then his family was also very cool too. I had so much fun getting to know his dad! He was hilarious and I could easily envision all the scenes he was in in like real time.

The literal only thing about this that I would change is the ending. It wasn’t bad, it was just like super stacked. OK I know you’re thinking like wtf so let me explain. It was like all the freaking clues he had to help him solve this came out right then. Like he had clues before, but he didn’t know what they meant. It was like he just had a collection of things. But at the end things finally came together and we had no input on it. My favorite thrillers or books about crime are those that make me feel like i can help solve it. When the book is basically all red herrings until the ending when it all the real stuff started coming out. I’m sure this is just a me thing, but I like to feel more involved.

But make no mistake. This book is dark. When things finally start happening, it’s really dark. All the things that happened made me sad, mad, enraged, and I was biting all my nails off scared at what was to come because of what was already happening and what was to come. The Black kids going missing in this book was crushing my heart and it felt so real. So please be mindful of your trigger warnings.

This book made me want to read his entire backlist. I already have one of them on hold. Someone already told me the backlist is also good. I can’t wait to get lost in more of his words.

All Sinners Bleed is a gripping procedural with many trigger warnings. Starting with a school shooting, racism, sexual abuse, child abuse.. just to name a few. It was difficult to read at times. But well done and I think the narrator did a great job!

Book Review: "All the Sinners Bleed" by S.A. Cosby 📚🔥

Hold onto your seats, folks, because "All the Sinners Bleed" by S.A. Cosby is an absolute knockout! This gripping story follows Titus Crowne, the first Black sheriff in Charon County, as he navigates a school shooting investigation and the complexities of wearing a police uniform in the American South.

Cosby's writing is nothing short of phenomenal, and the audio version takes it to another level. The narrator's performance is incredible, making it a must-listen experience. The book tackles tough themes and isn't my typical genre, but I was completely blown away!

While "Razorblade Tears" introduced me to Cosby's talent, "All the Sinners Bleed" took it to a whole new level. It's dark, disturbing, and filled with trigger warnings, but the audiobook storytelling is like a cinematic experience for your ears. Every character, every scene, every crime came to life vividly.

I can't recommend this book enough, but be prepared for its intensity. It's a solid five-star read for me! Huge thanks to the author and publisher for the advanced listening copy. 🎧📚

A small-town sheriff takes it personally when he uncovers a serial killer hiding in plain sight in his beloved town. Sheriff Titus Crown has dealt with the lowest of criminals before and knows how to handle the ones in Charon County.

Titus is the first black sheriff in a very Southern, very racially fraught county. He is reviled by the white, uber religious residents and viewed with skepticism by his Black peers. He is desperately trying to move the county into modern times and bring fair policing to his people. When there is a shooting at the local school, a massive ring of abuse is revealed as a student kills one of the teachers responsible. Titus is left to unravel the mystery of all of these dead and abused Black children before the townspeople call in the bigger guns to do it.

This one had a lot of great twists and turns. Titus was a fabulous main character, he was nuanced and complex. I loved how his backstory fit into the current case and the ending that brought things full circle. The townspeople were all well developed and while there were a lot of people to keep track of, each one progressed the story forward. SA Cosby is a master of gritty crime drama with an undercurrent of racial tension that keeps the pages turning.

Thanks to MacMillan Audio for gifted access via Netgalley. All opinions above are my own.

S.A. Cosby has a winning formula: Let's start in a hard-pressed, sun-scorched Virginia county. Start with a brooding, brusque hero with a dark past and a tough job to do. Give him sinister enemies, a gorgeous girl, and pit him against the challenges of being a Black man in America as he aims to save his community and family from what lies ahead. In ALL THE SINNERS BLEED, the formula holds: We get the Sheriff of the county, Titus. He's got a loving girl, a drunk father, and a divided police unit in a racist county. But S.A. Cosby goes darker here: Titus faces an incident where a Black man has shot a seemingly innocent white man. As he navigates immense pressure, however, Titus learns that he's really dealing with an underground serial killer who is ready to take the county on, one with rituals, biblical sayings, and friends in low places. Titus must stop this killer before he strikes again, all while trying to keep his constituents - even the most racist, opposing ones - safe.

In his fourth novel, Cosby has undoubtedly gone to his most twisted space yet. The days of vengeful fathers and getaway drivers are over after ALL THE SINNERS BLEED, where we're dealing with the abuse of minors, cults, and the undermining of organized religion. With a more convoluted plot than ever, a less skilled author might struggle. But Cosby's story is as clear as ever. Having re-released his first novel (MY DARKEST PRAYER) this past year, it's amazing to see how time and perspective has sharpened his writing skills. There are certainly parts of the story that remain a bit eye-rolly (like how every female character wants our Titus), it's what ultimately still makes a great crime novel. The b-story, around Titus having to consistently defend his right to be a Black sheriff in a racist county, is a gut punch. You won't unsee some of the plot points of this story, ever. It's lighter on the violence than say, RAZORBLADE TEARS, but all the more twisty, cinematic, and all-consuming.

Titus Crowne is the first Black sheriff in the history of Charon County. A former FBI agent and security expert, Titus came home to take care of his father and look out for his troubled younger brother. He ran for Sheriff to make a difference, especially in the Black community, which has so often been treated unfairly by the police. But a year to the day after his election, a school shooting rocks the town. A beloved teacher is killed by a former student, and as Titus attempts to deescalate and get the boy to surrender, his deputies fire a fatal shot. The trail leads to buried bodies—and secrets. While Titus tries to track down a killer hiding in plain sight, while balancing daily duties like protecting Confederate pride marchers, he must face what it means to be a Black man wearing a police uniform in the American South.

S.A. Cosby did an amazing job of creating his characters and the conflicts over race and power that reflect issues of today’s current times. Narrator Adam Lazarre-White is a true master of creating the various characters in unique and engaging ways and his characterization of the villain was absolutely chilling as he appeared throughout the novel. I highly recommend this novel!

It’s safe to say that I am a super fan of S.A. Cosby, I’ve devoured every novel he’s written, and somehow each one is better than the last. All the Sinners Bleed starts with a school shooting and during the investigation, the town’s Sheriff Titus Crowne uncovers even darker and more sinister secrets. A small town, Southern police procedural novel that you won’t be able to put down. Masterfully narrated by Adam Lazarre-White. One of my favorite books of the year!

Thank you to Macmillan Audio and NetGalley for this ALC.

S.A. Cosby is definitely shaping up to be the best writer of propulsive fiction I've read in a long time. In all of his books, which are a genre I never before considered to be particularly compelling, he pulls you right in and challenges you to stop reading or listening. I mean, his stories just don't let go. This one was no different. It begins with a bang, both figuratively, and literally, when the MC, Sheriff Titus Crown (how 'bout that name, huh? He could only be from the South) gets a call about a school shooting, unprecedented in the small town of Charon, and responds to find that there is only one victim. The apparent shooter is still on the premises and still alive. He is a young man Titus has known since he was born, who is waving around a shotgun and spouting what sounds like gibberish. But it isn't gibberish, it is the first crack that will expose and then widen a fissure in the community that no one was even aware of, and the likes of which the mostly poor citizens have never seen.

Among what I loved about this book are the things that I love about all his books—the incredibly detailed portrayal about the uneasy co-existence of Black and white rural poor in the South, the specter of slavery and Jim Crow ever-present and hanging over their heads, and the way the two groups fight over the scraps in a country that seems to have forgotten they exist. In this one, Cosby goes even deeper on those issues, but interestingly, that's where I sometimes struggled—the parts when he may have gone too deep.

Occasionally, Titus pauses to pontificate aloud about racism, white privilege, and the political hypocrisy, quoting writers and philosophers in a manner and at a time when it felt discordant with what was happening in the action. Not discordant because Titus wouldn't know such things (we get plenty of his backstory that tell us he would— UVa graduate, former FBI agent, well-read, etc.) but because he may be in the process of arresting or interrogating a backwoods yokel for whom his profundity may as well be a foreign language, and when it feels unlikely Titus would ever bother. At those times it felt like the author could not help but espouse his own worldview from the mouths of his protagonist, and it felt a little preachy, however much I may have agreed with what was being said.

The other thing that detracted from this one for me was the serial killer plot. I just don't enjoy those, personally. So this is definitely no commentary on the quality of the writing and how this plot unfolded because it was actually quite intricate and well-crafted. But I prefer my murderers to be a little more pedestrian; more like the guy next door who does something unspeakable and maybe keeps doing it, rather than someone with highly complex psychologically motives who is prone to elaborate staging and pageantry a la Hannibal Lecter.

Nevertheless, this book is classic Cosby (because that is already a thing in my mind)—tortured hero struggling to balance the dark and light aspects of his nature, an inherently solitary man struggling to make and strengthen connections to the people he cares for; and written decidedly from the lens of Black men, trying to do the right thing in a world that only ever expects them to do (and be) wrong.

I listened to this one, just as I did Cosby's others, but this time it was solely a listening experience and this voice actor, Adam Lazarre-White? He is soooo perfect for this and all of Cosby's other work. Tonally spot on, evoking all the characters so well that you see as well as hear them.

Recommended for those who like crime fiction, law enforcement protagonists, and seldom-seen intricate portrayals of what it's like to be part of the rural Black poor.

Happy book birthday to ALL THE SINNERS BLEED by @leoking8473 ! This one is out on shelves today so get on out there and snag yourself a copy! Thank you to the author, @netgalley and the publisher @macmillanaudio for the audio-ARC in exchange for a review.

I am absolutely enamoured with Cosby's writing and can't get enough. I have read 3 of the 4 I am aware of in his collection and have not been disappointed yet. He brings a knowledge base that complements his southern noir writing while also revealing the vulnerable soft underbelly of some of the less charming secrets of the south.

The story begins with a school shooting in small Charon County, Virginia. Titus, the first black sheriff ever in Charon, responds and after the young male shooter confesses to the crime, he says he killed the devil and then shot himself. Titus starts to understand that this school shooting is just the beginning of the horrors that will unravel as more folks end up dead and a serial killer appears to be on the loose.

With calculated wit, Cosby leads us through the complex maze of this story and the suspense keeps you turning pages. I really enjoyed the character portrayals by the narator, @realadamlw as well who did a great job of changing their voice, etc to bring a character to life. You could tell who was speaking even if you weren't fully paying attention because his voices are so unique. Excellent narrator that helped move the urgency of the story along.

There are many discussions of race, class, power and privilege in this book and it is well folded into the story. Highly recommend this if you like mysteries about crimes committed and racing the clock to catch a killer, if you enjoy suspenseful thrillers, intentional wit and a good complex storyline.

Please keep writing forever Cosby! I will consume anything you put on paper or audio!😂

Do you read any mysteries or thrillers? If so, is there a specific subgenre or type that you love? I love a gritty noir thriller, a cozy mystery and a caper the most!

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 celebrating the town’s Confederate history.

Charon is Titus’s home and his heart. But where faith and violence meet, there will be a reckoning.

Obviously, check the content warnings. I will say the school shooting scene is just the opener and it doesnt stay there too long, but the book is dark as most of his books are.

I absolutely loved this. What i love so much about Cosby's writing is that he can tell a propulsive story- but also gives us fully realized and well-developed characters. Even the smallest side character has a story. There’s also a serial killer plot in this story, which was an interesting addition. He has cemented his status as an auto read author for me, and i cannot wait to see what else he writes!

All the Sinners Bleed by S.A. Cosby was such a gripping mystery thriller that captured my attention right away. It was well paced and full of twists, hard decisions, horrific discoveries, dangerous situations, untimely deaths and a race against time. I listened to the audiobook that was very well narrated by Adam Lazare-White. It took place in Charon County, Virginia where not a lot of serious crimes were committed. The members of the younger generation were eager to escape from Charon but many of its older residents have been there for decades.

Titus Crowne grew up in Charon, Virginia. His mother had died when he was about twelve years old. Her death affected him more than he was willing to admit to. Titus attended the University of Virginia and then went on to become a FBI agent. When his father fell ill, Titus decided to come home to Charon County to help take care of him. While Titus was home, he decided to run for the elected office of sheriff. Titus’s main objective for running for the position of sheriff was that he wanted to make a difference in how the position was handled. He became the first black sheriff in Charon County’s history. Titus took his position very seriously. He was determined to fix the system from the inside out. All had been relatively quiet and easy for the first year that he served as sheriff but that was about to change in a heartbeat. A shooting had occurred at the high school. That was to become the worst crime Charon County would have ever had faced. As the investigation unfolded, Titus and his team began to uncover the most heinous crimes imaginable. A third participant to the crimes was still at large. Would Titus be able to uncover the identity of that individual before anything else happened?

All the Sinners Bleed by S. A. Cosby was fast paced and very well plotted. The characters were well thought out and developed. I found it so hard to tear myself away from this audiobook. S. A. Cosby realistically portrayed the issue of racism and the trauma of school shootings. It is so sad that our country has had to suffer so much trauma from both of these issues in the past several years. Unfortunately , I believe that we will continue to suffer from both of these issues until a united stance is established against gun violence and racism. All the Sinners Bleed dealt not only with racism and school shootings but with mental health issues, family, grief, loss, suffering and faith. The discoveries and evidence that Titus and his team collected were hard to stomach. It was so sad to contemplate that crimes like the ones committed in this book can and do happen. It made me so angry and sad. As a country, we must do more to stop this madness! I really enjoyed listening to the audiobook of All the Sinners Bleed by S. A. Cosby and highly recommend it.

Thank you to Macmillan Audio for allowing me to listen to the audiobook of All the Sinners Bleed by S. A. Cosby through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. All opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

S.A. Cosby wowed me with his novel Razorblade Tears. The story about two fathers seeking revenge and redemption over the murder of their gay sons shook me to my core. I vowed to read whatever Cosby came up with next. Luckily for me, I didn't have long to wait. His latest novel All the Sinners Bleed was released last week, and his publisher kindly provided me with the audio version to listen to. The work is filled with contemplations on complex subjects, all wrapped together as a police procedural. In short, it is another must-read novel from this talented author.

Titus Crowne built a prestigious career in law enforcement. His security expertise saw Titus rise in the ranks of the FBI, proving his ability in the upper echelon of his field. He left the FBI to return to his home in Charon County. An ailing elderly father and troubled younger brother gave Titus plenty to do, but he missed the sense of purpose that came from police work. Soon, he put his hat in the race for Sherrif. To his surprise, Titus won the race and became the first Black sheriff in the county's history.

One year later, Titus is called to the scene of an ongoing shooting and the local high school. It is every police officer's worst nightmare. Titus expects to find the kind of mass casualty massacre that lace the headlines every week. Instead, he finds a shooter much more focused on his target. A single teacher is murdered before Titus's deputies fire the fatal shot that kills the shooter. In the immediate aftermath, the community mourns the loss of a well-loved teacher. The pastor of the local church decries the death of the young shooter. None of them, though, are prepared for the shocking truths to come out of the investigation. The teacher was a serial child abuser. The murderer was one of his victims turned accomplice. A third, masked accomplice is still at large. Titus will stop at nothing to bring this mysterious figure to justice.

All the Sinners Bleed sees S.A. Cosby level up as an author in every way and cements his status as one of the most compelling American novelists writing today. The basic setup of the novel is very much in the tradition of classic police procedurals. The form creates a page-turning sense of urgency while allowing Cosby to delve deeper into themes of community, racism, and religion. The fictional setting of Charon County feels as palpable as any southern town I've ever visited. Complete with Confederate sentimentalists, snake-wrangling preachers, and a community divided among racial and generational lines. Cosby transports us to this place through his detailed descriptions and deeply drawn characters. There's conflict both internally and externally that helps to propel this novel to the top of his already stellar collected works. All the Sinners Bleed is the novel of the summer and already stacking up to be one of the best that I've read this year.

S.A. Cosby's writing 🤝 Adam Lazarre-White's narration
✨truly a match made in heaven✨



Easiest 5 star rating I've had all year. S.A. Cosby DOES NOT MISS.

All the Sinners Bleed by S.A. Cosby

Former FBI, Titus Crowne returns to his hometown to care for his father. He ends up being elected as the first black sheriff in the small rural town of Charon County, Virginia.

A beloved teacher is killed by a young black man in a school shooting, he is the sole target. Cops are at the scene and while Titus is handling the situation, white cops shot the perp dead. The circumstance has become even more difficult for the black sheriff and the community. As the investigation progress, darker town secrets are revealed.

S.A. Cosby writes books that have deeply conflicted characters who as the reader care about. I liked the main character, Titus Crowne. Also, another aspect of Mr. Cosby's books are they are action packed and keep you flipping the pages to get to the end to see where the story goes. This story felt like it could be true ripped from the headlines, and it made the story feel believable even though this story is a work of fiction.

Narrated by Adam Lazarre-White who brings the story to life giving voice to the characters. He does such a great job, and it was easy to listen too. This was a five-star read for me. I am looking forward to Mr. Cosby's next book.

Thank you to NetGalley and MacMillan audio for a free copy of All the Sinners Bleed for an honest review. All thoughts and opinions in this review are my own.

Titus is the first black sheriff in his county. It is usually a quiet county with very little happenings. So, when there is an active shooter at the high school, Titus relies on his FBI training. But, as the investigation starts to unfold, Titus realizes he has a possible serial killer on his hands.

Talk about an intricate thriller with fantastic intensity and wonderful characters! And this author’s phrasing is so dang good. There is so much that he says in between the lines. And he is so intelligent and it comes out in all his stories. I love his book references and the way his character, Titus’, has some common sense. A lot of times an author fails to portray that area of intelligence in their characters. Not S. A. Cosby. Titus pushes back and uses his strengths to get the job done!

To say I love this author is an understatement! I listened to My Darkest Prayer earlier this year. I was hooked!

This is one book in which I recommend listening to. This narrator, Adam Lazarre-White, is outstanding!

I received this novel from the publisher for a honest review.

*4.5 Stars On My Instagram Account*

"That's the thing about violence. It didn't always wait for an invitation. Sometimes it saw a crack in the damn and then it flooded the whole valley."

The genius way author S.A.Cosby creates a story and narrator Adam Lazarre-White performs it has made this dynamic duo the real deal for socially conscious storytelling and it's evident in the superbly gripping police procedural thriller All The Sinners Bleed.

Titus Crowne, former FBI profiler and security expert, comes home to his southern roots to become the first black sheriff of Charon County. On the personal side he's dealing with a sick elderly father, a younger brother heading down the wrong path and a girlfriend who wants more than he can give right now. Then all hell breaks loose when he gets the "active shooter at the high school" call.

A former black student kills the most popular white teacher. The student is killed on sight. During the investigation it's revealed just how vile a monster this teacher was and what drove the student to kill him. But then Titus realizes the teacher had a partner and everyone in Titus' life is now a target.

More than just a tense catch the killer thriller there is so much real life drama. The black community feels Titus is more "blue rather than black." The white community and church wants his badge. Both communities are on edge and violence is seeping in. The tension is visceral culminating in a racially driven attack with fatal consequences. I will say Titus has one of the best responses to it all at the end that left me with the biggest smile.

Just like Titus I wonder when will we realize no matter the color of our skin or our religious beliefs All The Sinners Bleed.

ALL THE SINNERS BLEED review

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.5/5

✴️I can’t belieeeeve this is my first time reading a book by S.A. Cosby! Wow I loved this one. 👏 Once I got about 20% in I was fully invested and wanted to keep reading it every time I put it down!

✴️Here’s a summary of the plot:👇
Titus moved back to his small Southern town to help care for his father. As the first black sheriff of his county, Titus faces a lot of judgment and discrimination from the people he serves. When a school shooting is reported at the local high school, Titus responds immediately. But when he gets there the shooter is his best friend’s son. What would cause him to do this? As Titus digs into the case in the aftermath of the shooting, he discovers some horrific secrets some of the school staff members are keeping…

✴️I truly had no idea how this one would end! The plot kept me guessing the entire time, which I love. Parts of this book creeped me out so much I couldn’t read it after dark. The pacing was a bit off and the story seemed to drag just a tad in the middle, but overall I really really enjoyed this one! It felt very different from any other thriller I’ve read. I definitely plan to read more of S.A. Crosby’s books this year!
