About this listen
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.

Excellent plot!
Modern contemporary thriller with strong literary text. Excellent reader as well. Strong plot with lots of slang from the USA South.

A kick in the guts would be smoother than this
Racism and homophobia are the strong undercurrents to this utterly compelling narrative of two old men seeking vengeance for the death of their sons. The concern you get to feel for them as they put themselves in harms way is a tribute to the story-telling. The N word is freely applied and it certainly feels authentic. The narration for me was spot-on. A couple of weeks on and I was idly thinking that I had enjoyed the film! It was THAT vivid.

This is a brilliant listen
The narration of this book is fantastic and I would highly recommend it just for that. But this story of redemption and revenge is populated with some memorable characters that are fully realised by the narrator. Buddy Lee, Ike and Grayson sound real in your head. Enjoy.

Love is love - what a ride
Gripping, touching, funny, dark, surprising, harrowing, what a story! Didn’t want it to end, was so sad to hit the ‘remove from device’ button, I wanted to stay pals with the unlikely duo of Ike and Buddy-Lee. The narrator felt tailor-made for SA Cosby’s writing. This book is just aching for a movie re-make, I hear it’s already on the cards, can’t wait!
