A Black father. A white father. Two murdered sons. A quest for vengeance.

Ike Randolph has been out of jail for fifteen years, with not so much as a speeding ticket in all that time. 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 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 else in common other than a criminal past and a love for their dead sons, band together in their desperate desire for revenge. In their quest to do better for their sons in death than they did in life, hardened men Ike and Buddy Lee will confront their own prejudices about their sons and each other, as they rain down vengeance upon those who hurt their boys.

Provocative and fast-paced, S. A. Cosby's Razorblade Tears is a story of bloody retribution, heartfelt change—and maybe even redemption.

Intense Thriller

RAZORBLADE TEARS is an intense thriller with multiple jaw dropping twists. Two fathers team up to find out who killed their sons and are willing to go to extremes to find avenge their murder. RAZORBLADE TEARS is the follow up to the amazing BLACKTOP WASTELAND and does not disappoint. SA Cosby is the real deal and I will continue to anticipate each new book release for years to come. Adam Lazarre-White is also becoming a favorite narrator as well, simply amazing how great he is.

Very riveting as well as entertaining

Read about S. A. Cosby in a book review. Based on review decided to listen to his novels. Narration is exceptional. Thoroughly enjoyed this book as well Blacktop Waste Land. Very entertaining and insightful. Thank you.

Read it, read it, read it

Great story, great message I highly recommend this book. S.A. Cosby is an excellent storyteller.

Excellent read about southern history and prejudices colliding

The narration was superb. These two flawed men, who realized the love of their sons too late, going a trip for revenge, learn a lot from each other and from those they meet along the way, in an effort to make up their neglect of their boys in life. Their murder was ruthless, but the murderers are about to see what power real love can give, and take down the hypocrites in the process. Grisly but fast moving, the true story comes out: family no matter what.

Terrific characters on a path of retribution

Great narration and voicing of main characters especially Buddy Lee. Gripping revenge, atonement plot. Explosive.
