P&P Live!: S.A. Cosby and David Heska Wanbli Weiden – Crime Fiction in Today's America

S. A. Cosby's Blacktop Wasteland is a searing, operatic story of a man pushed to his limits by poverty, race, and his own former life of crime. Beauregard "Bug" Montage is an honest mechanic, a loving husband, and a hard-working dad. Bug knows there’s no future in the man he used to be: known from the hills of North Carolina to the beaches of Florida as the best wheelman on the East Coast. Haunted by the ghost of his past self and the father who disappeared when he needed him most, Bug must find a way to navigate this blacktop wasteland...or die trying.

David Heska Wanbli Weiden's Winter Counts groundbreaking thriller about a vigilante on a Native American reservation who embarks on a dangerous mission to track down the source of a heroin influx. This book is a tour-de-force of crime fiction, a bracingly honest look at a long-ignored part of American life, and a twisting, turning story that’s as deeply rendered as it is thrilling.
