Award-winning, New York Times bestselling author S. A. Cosby's debut novel My Darkest Prayer is republished in a new edition, with a new introduction from the author. "S.A. Cosby's reissued debut thriller proves he was a master from the start…Cosby has in three books emerged as one of the genre's best living practitioners...its reissue is a brilliant idea." -Los Angeles Times "I handle the bodies." Whether it's working at his cousin's funeral home or tossing around the local riffraff at his favorite bar, Nathan Way maker is a man who knows how to handle the bodies. A former marine and sheriff's deputy, Nathan has built a reputation in his small Southern town as a man who can help when all other avenues have been exhausted. When a beloved local minister is found dead, his parishioners ask Nathan to make sure the death isn't swept under the rug. What starts out as an easy payday soon descends into a maze of mayhem filled with wannabe gangsters, vicious crime lords, porn stars, crooked police officers, and a particularly treacherous preacher and his mysterious wife. Nathan must use all his varied skills and some of his wit to navigate the murky waters of small town corruption even as dark secrets of his own threaten to come to the surface.

Debut

This is the first book written by Cosby which was republished after the success of Razorblade Tears. It is very violent and the volume of unsavory characters was confusing at times. The story is written from a southern black perspective about some of the struggle the black community has with corrupt police officials as well as their own disreputable individuals. The Nate character has a lot of built-up rage but at the core he wanted to do the right thing.
