All the Sinners Bleed

This is the third S.A. Cosby book I’ve read — all are set in rural Black Virginia, all are very violent to be clear, and all incredible. I don’t read a whole lot of crime, but he’s one of my favorites.

The first Black sheriff in a rural Virginia county is called out to a school shooting of a beloved white teacher by a young Black man; the shooter is killed by two white deputies. The investigation reveals that a serial killer has been at work for a long time.
