S.A. Cosby gets real dark in KING OF ASHES. A slow-burn noir packed with grief, addiction, and a whole lot of Southern ash. My #BookReview:

#KingOfAshes #SACosby #SouthernNoir #CrimeFiction #Booksky
King of Ashes
A powerful novel full of flawed but recognizable characters, familial reckonings, and an internal dialogue that rarely comes up for air. But get ready, King of Ashes is dark.

This one should be super fun to draw the full sized piece - or it will be completely frustrating. Maybe both.

Inside the wire cage, tangled among the bait fish and blue crabs, was a human hand.

Funny how we cling to the same patterns, even when they keep us caged.
