SA COSBY In Person With Craig Sisterson, A CTFM Special.
RAZORBLADE TEARS - WINNER OF THE CRIME TIME FM CRIME NOVEL OF THE YEAR 2021
SA COSBY chats with Craig Sisterson about his novel RAZORBLADE TEARS, Winning the CTFM Novel Award, being the 'bard of broken men', TV rights and entertaining readers.
Razorblade Tears: Ike Randolph left jail fifteen years ago, with not so much as a speeding ticket since. But a Black man with cops at the door knows to be afraid.
Ike is devastated to learn his son Isiah has been murdered, along with Isiah's white husband, Derek. Though he never fully accepted his son, Ike is broken by his death.
Derek's father Buddy Lee was as ashamed of Derek being gay as Derek was of his father's criminal past. But Buddy Lee - with seedy contacts deep in the underworld - needs to know who killed his only child.
Desperate to do better by them in death than they did in life, two hardened ex-cons must confront their own prejudices about their sons - and each other - as they rain down vengeance upon those who hurt their boys.
