Nate Waymaker knows the line between right and wrong. However, the world he inhabits sees that line get blurred far too often. His parents were the victims of vehicular manslaughter perpetrated by the privileged son of a local bigshot. The sheriff’s department either bungled the investigation or covered for the suspect. Nate served his country in the Marines and served his community in law enforcement. Now, he works in a mortuary where his clients can’t offer any more heartache than the living. The recently departed Reverend Esau Watkins offers Nate more than just a funeral service to help set up. Nate is approached by two of the late Reverend’s parishioners. They believe Watkins met with foul play. Nate decides to approach the sheriff’s department tactfully but knows he may just open up a whole can of worms.
My Darkest Prayer is the latest tantalizing mystery from the gifted scribe S.A. Cosby (Razorblade Tears). Cosby is skilled at hooking the reader from the launch of his story, and the saga of Nate Waymaker is no different. Nate’s rage at injustice and his willingness to fight for the underdog make him an identifiable protagonist worth seeing on every subsequent page.
