"Lazarre-White masterfully portrays people of multiple races, old and young. He also delivers Cosby's reflections on family, grief, and faith with genuine introspection and without distracting from the tense plotlines...This is a gripping, timely tale—beautifully told."—AudioFile (Earphones Award winner)
The new novel from New York Times bestselling and Los Angeles Times Book Prize-winning author S. A. Cosby, "one of the most muscular, distinctive, grab-you-by-both-ears voices in American crime fiction.”—The Washington Post.
A Black sheriff. A serial killer.
A small town ready to combust.
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 in celebration of the town’s Confederate history.
Charon is Titus’s home and his heart. But where faith and violence meet, there will be a reckoning.
Powerful and unforgettable, All the Sinners Bleed confirms S. A. Cosby as “one of the most muscular, distinctive, grab-you-by-both-ears voices in American crime fiction” (The Washington Post).

I listened to the audiobook, and let me just say: the narrator is phenomenal. I could’ve listened to him read the back of a cereal box. His delivery brought so much texture to the story and the setting, especially with characters like Albert (an absolute riot) and Mrs. Gilby, who had some of the best one-liners I’ve ever heard.
Titus Crown—our Black sheriff in a deeply Southern town—is one of the most layered protagonists I’ve read in a long time. His OCD, his relationship with faith, his trauma, his constant inner push-pull between doing what’s right and doing what’s expected—it’s all so real. The quote that stuck with me? “He promised he was going to be a sheriff that was Black, not the Black community’s sheriff.” That line alone sums up so much of the tension in the book.
There’s a lot happening politically, emotionally, and culturally, and Cosby weaves it all together with precision. From neo-Confederates to corrupt reverends, statues coming down, and long-standing racist power structures being threatened—the stakes feel real without ever becoming performative. And the way Cosby captures Southern contradictions? Chef’s kiss. My favorite line: “It occurred to him that no place was more confused about its past, or scared of its future, than the South.”
Also—shoutout to the pacing. The chapters are long, but the tension never drops. When it ramps up, especially during the raid scenes? I was fully holding my breath. And the ending? Clean, earned, and satisfying without dragging things out.
This is the kind of book that hits you in the gut and then makes you want to hand it to everyone you know. A must-read if you like your crime fiction thoughtful, fearless, and rooted in real-world nuance.
This was my first S.A. Cosby and definitely not my last.

I still had a few critiques of the language or narrative here, but it was so refreshing to read a crime novel that satiated my mystery novel appetite, but which also did not shy away from considering issues of power are they continue to manifest in our unfair world. This was my first S. A. Cosby novel, and I will be reading another.
