Razorblade Tears

By: S. A. Cosby

Narrated by: Adam Lazarre-White

A Black father. A white father. Two murdered sons. A quest for vengeance.

Ike Randolph has been out of jail for 15 years, with not so much as a speeding ticket since. But a Black man with cops at the door knows to be afraid. The last thing he expects to hear is that his son Isiah has been murdered, along with Isiah's white husband, Derek. Ike had never fully accepted his son but is devastated by his loss.

Derek's father, Buddy Lee, was almost as ashamed of Derek for being gay as Derek was ashamed that his father was a criminal. Buddy Lee still has contacts in the underworld, though...and he wants to know who killed his boy.

Ike and Buddy Lee, two ex-cons with little in common other than a criminal past and a love for their dead sons, band together in a desperate desire for retribution. In their quest to do better for their children in death than they did in life, they must confront their prejudices about their sons - and each other - as they rain down vengeance upon those who hurt them.

A provocative revenge thriller and an achingly tender story of redemption, this novel is a ferocious portrait of grief, for those loved and lost and for mistakes than can never truly be undone.

Fav thriller of the year

This book is awesome, just put together Clint Eastwood’s grumpy characters, John Wick and Djanjo Unchained and you get the best time of your life. Also!! The narrator of this book!! I could listen of his voice for days.

Just brilliant!

I almost DNF'd this book because I haven't read or listened to a crime story in a long time. I found the story interesting at first but as the book progressed I realized that it was amazing! I was so invested in this book! The writing was brilliant, the story line was just as brilliant and the narration was great!
Its somewhat a slow burn but do NOT DNF!
Trust me, its worth it.
This was my first book by this author and I am glad I listened to it!
Thank you Mr Cosby, you have gained yourself a follower!
