Reader Meet Writer: Shawn A. Cosby (online)
Let us deliver authors to your living room. These events are being hosted by the Southern Independent Booksellers Alliance.
"The gritty, brutal narrative is complemented by the author's sublime use of sensory description and regional imagery. In addition, the epic, jaw-dropping chase sequences that figure prominently are reason alone to read this pedal-to-the-metal but profoundly sorrowful novel. Cosby is definitely a writer to watch.
–Publishers Weekly
