Reviews
"Propulsive and powerful. . . A gripping roller coaster ride of escalating danger in cars and crematories, punctuated by pulpy moments of dark glamour in the bedroom and the club, interspersed with elegiac meditations on the art of war. The story overflows with immersive velocity and crackling sensory details. . . With Roman, Cosby has sculpted a character of Shakespearean proportions: kingly, devoted, shrewd. He reminds us of Hamlet, a tormented antihero struggling with how best to take revenge while preserving his soul in a depraved land." --New York Times Book Review "Dark, riveting, and accomplished. . . Cosby has built an impressive reputation for creating brutal, fast-paced novels in which bad things happen to just about everybody." --Washington Post "Pick up the novel everyone will be talking about. . . The flashy sequences of violence feel apt for TV (Netflix, along with Steven Spielberg's production outfit and the Obamas' media company, is working on a series), but the novel's real draw is the quieter ache of a family torn apart." --The Atlantic "A thrilling and thought-provoking look at privilege and loyalty. . . Raw, gritty and undeniably entertaining, King of Ashes delivers one sizzling summer read that concludes with a few unexpected twists." --Atlanta Journal Constitution "This is a tale of Shakespearean proportions , of festering passions, brutal vengeance, of loyalty and love. Cosby's prose is a brilliant conflagration of fiery metaphors and brutal realism." --Minneapolis Star Tribune "A fast-paced thriller that will have readers asking whether the ends justify the means if there is no end in sight. . . Reminiscent of the great tragedies, this is Cosby at his best." --Library Journal , starred review "Cosby is one of the biggest names in the crime/thriller world these days. . . King of Ashes takes its cue from The Godfather - an ailing patriarch, a family falling apart and a son who comes back home to hold it all together." --NPR.com "A Southern crime drama to the tune of "The Godfather." --USA TODAY "Cosby has published one magnificent crime novel after another. . . and this new book spotlights the author's gift for building complex characters. . . His dialogue, too, is pitch-perfect: colloquial and idiomatic, reflecting the education and upbringing of his characters--it feels like we're eavesdropping on real people. A stunning novel." --Booklist "Classically tragic." --Wall Street Journal "Cosby keeps things tense, making great use of the crematorium and freshening the genre with lofty philosophizing . . . Rarely has a crime fiction family been given a more bitter spin than this one. Another strong outing by a modern noir master." -- Kirkus , starred review "A thrilling and dark take on a twisted American Dream cum Shakespearean tragedy. . . Cosby crafts an exquisite thriller; the pages whir by on superb prose. . . Building to a cataclysmic finale, Cosby once again propels readers on one hell of a ride. Excellent." --Deadly Pleasures , A+ "Today's modern master of crime fiction is back in a scathing work that does what S.A. Cosby does best -- entertain, but also leave a scar on the reader's psyche." --Cemetery Dance, "Pick up the novel everyone will be talking about. . . The flashy sequences of violence feel apt for TV (Netflix, along with Steven Spielberg's production outfit and the Obamas' media company, is working on a series), but the novel's real draw is the quieter ache of a family torn apart." --The Atlantic "A fast-paced thriller that will have readers asking whether the ends justify the means if there is no end in sight. . .

Neveah and their father, who run the Carruthers Crematorium in the run-down central Virginia town of Jefferson Run, see death up close every day. But mortality draws even closer when it becomes clear that the crash that landed their father in a coma was no accident and Dante's recklessness has placed them all in real danger. Roman, a financial whiz with a head for numbers and a talent for making his clients rich, has some money to help buy his brother out of trouble. But in his work with wannabe tough guys, he's forgotten that there are real gangsters out there. As his bargaining chips go up in smoke, Roman realizes that he has only one thing left to offer to save his brother: himself, and his own particular set of skills. Roman begins his work for the criminals while Neveah tries to uncover the long-ago mystery of what happened to their mother, who disappeared when they were teenagers. But Roman is far less of a pushover than the gangsters realize. He is willing to do anything to save his family. Anything. Because everything burns.

    My book arrived four days early! Great job wrapping my book and protecting it from harm in shipment. The cardboard and bubble-wrap envelope kept it safe from postal abuse. You guys are professionals in bookselling. (Your item description and low price made the sale over your competitors.) I look forward to doing business with you again. Thank you very much!
