Story
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.

I found this book through an Audible ad. After reading the details, I gave it a try. I am very impressed. I much enjoyed the story, and Adam Lazarre-White hooked me in from the get go. You will do yourself an injustice if you dismiss this book because you do not typically read stories by black authors. Hearing the point of view of the characters added to the story for me; I am so glad I took a chance. I will read another by Cosby, and see if it can keep up.

Story
After years of suffering unfathomable pain and guilt over the murders of his wife and daughter, private detective Charlie Parker has finally found some measure of peace. As he and his lover, Rachel, are awaiting the birth of their first child and settling into an old farmhouse in rural Maine, Parker has found the kind of solace often lost to those who have been touched by true evil. But darkness soon descends when Parker gets a call from Elliot Norton, an old friend from his days as a detective with the NYPD.

First off, the narrator for this title is different from books 1 and two. After getting used to him, this one is hard to take. When did Angel become a Latino? The narration may be OK for you if this is your first Charlie Parker book, but it was hard for me to take. I was a little lost on this one, since I skipped book 3 (it;s not available as audio book and I chose not to go Old School by actually reading it), so the Faulkner story line was a little lost to me.
As other readers mention, there are several subplots and story lines in this one, which can make it difficult to keep up if you don't give full attention while listening, as they really are related to the story.
Overall, I give this one a 3, hoping book 5 brings the value back up.

Story
The debut psychological thriller that will forever change the way you look at other people's lives. Every day the same. Rachel takes the same commuter train every morning and night. Every day she rattles down the track, flashes past a stretch of cozy suburban homes, and stops at the signal that allows her to daily watch the same couple breakfasting on their deck. She’s even started to feel like she knows them. Jess and Jason, she calls them. Their life - as she sees it - is perfect. Not unlike the life she recently lost.

I have not seen the movie. I enjoyed this story. Kept me going right up to the end. There were really no slow parts, although it does take you a minute to figure out who's who from the start.
