About this listen
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.
"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 Waymaker 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.

Great crime thriller
Another SA Cosby. This is the third of his books I've listened to and think they'd be great movies. Idris Elba for the main role?
Absolutely gagging for his next book.

History of past times in America explained through first person and third perspectives
Love the story and character development. Absolutely magnificent written and for a first novel bloody well done. It’s the second book I have read of this author and I’m definitely going back for more…!! 👌

Righteous justice in a perfectly delivered story with fully formed characters
Absolutely loved My Darkest Prayer from the first sentence to the last. Fast-paced; brilliant plot; likeable and loathsome characters to cheer and jeer; and a clever ending that delivers righteous justice and a lovely homily on friendship and family. Highly recommended, and highly recommend anything by Mr S.A. Cosby. From a fellow author (true crime and non-fiction).

Another perfect story
I absolutely adore this author. He's brilliant. Everything he writes is poetry.
And the narrator.....they definitely "clang when he walks....."

A waste of time
The story is weak and predictable. I was very disappointed with the entire story line.
